to get more then 50 or 100 mails a day is a "very Debian" thing, i don't
believe people using normal mail readers like tons of mails of bugs.

i don't think is motivating to search for real user posts, and i don't think
is a cool thing to have a mail archiv which consists nearly to 100% in
automated bugzilla mails. And if there are so many lists, why not create a
new one, and if there is need for motviation i think its better to summarize
the bugzilla events into 1-2 mails per week.

I really don't like this style of "recommendation", because it looks like
"this is the only way, to do things right". And yes its an important part,
one of many. Are there some other lists for the other parts?
