I personally never had a feeling off "Duh, what are all the questions
doing between the announcements", nor the other way around.

One particular thing I really like about this list is that is combines
both announcements and discussions. As I skip through all new threads
I eventually get to see interesting stuff, no matter what exactly it is.

Having those two topics seperated would only seem to be a break in my
usual "Let's see whats up in the Ruby world" reading flow.

If such a seperation would ever take place (besides the fact that it
is hardly possible to cleanly enforce that announcements just go to
one list and general discussions to another) the first thing I'd do
would be to save both MLs to one mailbox.
