The same argument can be made for the opposite approach. If there are too many "New package" or "Package updated" messages, I am particularly inclined to read ever one of them in detail. The only value of separate messages in my eyes would be that you could respond to them directly, but that would create too much traffic, and would probably require a separate mailing list. I guess the real question remains who the "target audience" of these messages would be. As Michael said, Sasha Chua's weekly update already mentions new packages (though not package updates). -- Philip Kaludercic
