I do not like the style of that page: It seems too noisy to me.

However, I find the tags nice. Could that somehow be adopted for sage
discussion lists?

In that way, one could have just one (or two) big lists. On the start
page, all topics with recent activity are visible, so that people have
a chance to get a small glimpse of it, by seeing the title (and
perhaps they feel inclined to actually read it, even though it isn't
their primary field of interest). Then, by just one click on a tag,
one gets a list that matches the interests better.

What do people think about the idea of just having one list, and
replace the old lists sage-algebra, sage-combinat-devel, sage-flame,
sage-notebook, sage-... by tags?

Perhaps there could even be a hierarchy of tags?
No tag: See all recent activity, get a general overview.
Top-tag "maths": See all activity relating with math in general.
Sub-tag "maths-algebra", sub-sub-tag "maths-algebra-number theory":
Guess what.

Labeling a post with several tags should also be easier than cross-
posting on several lists, and customizing should be easy as well.
