Re: [Last-Call] Six months in: evaluation of the last-call mailing list experiment

2.   Strongly agree with Scott Kitterman's comments about
looking at subscription (and posting) breakdowns and statistics
as being more useful than polling and about the risk of making
it more difficult for newcomers to figure out what is going on.
I'd add that anyone who does significant automated local
filtering or classification could do a 90% job by looking at
"[Last Call]" in subject lines (as I have done for years) -- no
separate list needed.

Possibly the effort to create separate lists could be better
spent pushing back on interminable discussions on the IETF list
about, e.g., subjects that are not IETF problems.

I expect I'm in  the rough here, but still...

best,
   john
