Well, I'm really interested in the roll-ups for those lists that I'm *not* on. There are a number of lists that I wouldn't mind keeping an eye on, but not at the level of a full subscription. These sort of roll-up posts would be an ideal way of making sure that if something really interesting did come up then I wouldn't miss it completely. In olden times, mailing lists offered you the regular or digest (all batched up) view.
