I believe this new mailing list would be the right place for it. What is happening now: my Mailbox gets full of messages, that I barely read (because they are just too many), most of those I have read then weren't useful for me at all - and I guess I unintentionally deleted many interesting mails because of this. Surely I'm not the only one doing it this way.
