Hi,
So some core developers as well as lurking end users have noted that the
traffic on this list prevents them from being able to follow this list.
This is obviously a huge problem since this mailinglist is supposed to
be our primary discussion and decision making tool.

Personally, I'm an end user who reads the list because I care about the
direction PHP is taking. However, I have rarely had the need to post to
any of the mailing lists.
In any case, the traffic on the list is not a problem for me - because I
access it through NNTP (news.php.net) and it never clogs my inbox. I
personally think mailing lists are an awful way to maintain a set of
many concurrent discussion threads, and NNTP is far superior. If you
severely dislike receiving a lot of irrelevant e-mail, then maybe give
news.php.net a try instead? That way, you can just browse the lists in
a threaded view whenever you feel like it. Works well for me, anyway -
but then, I'm not a PHP developer, so maybe the story is different.
