Actually, I believe there is discussion going on (devel-list maybe?)
about disbanding the test-list and moving all discussions to devel-list
anyway.

Now, upon whether that happens or not, if it does, there is already a
fedora-package-announce list for official updates.  Either there is a
separate one for test-updates, or they too will also move to devel-list
and you'll need to specify more in your filters to help separate the
emails on conversion vs announcements, as I have.

I guess it all comes down to, what is easier to use/maintain in all of
this, fewer lists and just setup filters to get through them easier, but
more traffic?  Or more lists, less traffic, but also more things to
admin, take care of, and watch on the hosting side?  Lots of things to
consider?
