Bruce,

You may want to consider just arbitrarily splitting the list into (say) 
three.  The current range of topics would remain the same but the volume 
may go down 1/2 or more (approaching 2/3 asymptotically :-)).

Some list honcho(s) could summarize periodically and post to a debian 
news (one-way) list that went out to the subscribers to all three lists.  
Maybe over time, the lists would develop their own identity--the newbies 
may prefer one list or another, etc.

                       just a thought
