I guess you're right - it really depends.  The way I see it, it keeps 
all the talk in one place.  That said, if another list starts to get 
used, I would simply sign up to it with the same email address as this 
one and let it drop into the same mailbox.  That way, it would work 
almost the same - only there is a chance I would get multiple ANN posts 
(similar to the way it works between Rails-Talk and Ruby-Talk some times).

Cheers,
Mohit.
