This list is supposed to be for discussions.

They are asking for a development announcement only list.

Many want this.

It is insane that a few key fedora leaders are against this, because 
they feel that everyone should be reading everything on these flooded 
discussion lists, and if they miss anything then it is their fault.

For this reason, FESCO approved a development announce-only list for 
important stuff to cut through the noise of discussion lists.

But it was never launched due to disagreement from key people.

I think we should JUST DO IT.

This wouldn't be the first list that I created where other people 
thought it wouldn't be worthwhile.

And was later copied due to its success.

JUST DO IT.  IT WILL WORK.
