Perhaps. Even though there was a lot of traffic, much of it was easy
to follow because a significant proportion of it was consistently
titled - RFC ## (v#): Add XYZ into Perl. That traffic is also easy
to find in the archives.
That will probably be less of an issue with a strong lack of RFC
activity during the implementation phase. It very well could be
that anyone doing serious work is going to subscribe to perl6-all,
and the perl6-* lists exist for those who just want to listen.
