I think the concern is simply, the remixes and communities around them
are likely to grow with the simplification of the trademark guidelines.
Having every downstream remix announce to f-announce-l might overwhelm
the low-volume list.  Another way to look at it is, should we allow RHEL
and CentOS release announcements on f-announce-l?  Where do we draw the
line?

Currently, I'm liking the idea of doing a remix-specific announcement
list and asking some group to send the occasional email to f-announce-l
highlighting a few recent remixes with a pointer to more.
