A couple of quick points.
1) I think that splitting the list is the wrong approach.
2) Perhaps we need to look at adding a mechanism that enforces the use
of tags in the subject line (send a nice sorry, but you need to

I am one of those horizontal people (working on docs and basically one of
the people responsible at my organization for keeping a handle on what's
going on) and I'm totally against a split.
Of COURSE we need to maintain the integrated/incubated/proposed spectrum.

Definitely +1 for splitting -- it becomes overwhelmed. We'll soon need
regexps just to handle the incoming emails :) Having separate mailing lists
would make it easier to stay focused and concentrate on needed projects.

This would also have the added benefit of reducing the times people conflate
related open source projects from stackforge with OpenStack itself. Having
