Iam thinking, that it will be a good idea to split debian-user
and others like debian-user-german into Release-Related lists.
I am using only Stable and 70% of the Discusion on debian-user-german
is related to testing and unstable... The List have curently around
14 MByte Traffic per month and the most is not related to me.
Which mean it is unnessesary traffic for me... Maybe others too ;-)

Hmmm...

Yes, I am too...
Curently I am on 37 Debian-Lists...
Some has very low traffic and others 14 and more MBytes per month
