Subject: about time for seperate lists?

Hi all,

I'd like to bring up a point here on the list that maybe some of you
other Ruby-ites out there have thought of as well. I think it's time for
seperate lists in the Ruby community. I left it go without reading any
messages today, and I received 115 messages on this list alone. That's
three times what I got from all other mail/news sources combined. 

Perhaps ruby-talk could be broken up into ruby-dev, ruby-newbie and 
ruby-misc, or something similar. People could still subsribe to all the lists if
they wanted, but the deluge of messages might be lessened by breaking 
up the list into logical partitions. 

I don't mean to complain, but 115 messages is a lot to read every day, and
I have other things to do, as I'm sure many of you other subscribers do, too.
If I am out of line, please just say so, and you'll never hear another peep
from me again about it. But I really think that a lot of people could benefit
from breaking the list up.

What do you all think?
