I'm not going to make up bogus percentages but I'm sure there are many Fedora 
users who don't read fedora-list. I've been participating on this list for a 
few months now, and I've been here a few times before. I think I may soon 
have to leave this list again as other things will take up my time, but I'll 
remain subscribed to fedora-announce-list. Even now I skip large parts of 
fedora-list, following only some threads, so I could easily miss an 
announcement made on this list. I used to have all the Fedora lists mixed in 
the same mail folder, but now I have separate sub-folders for fedora-list, 
fedora-announce-list and fedora-package-announce. That way important 
announcements don't drown in the noise on the other lists, and I can more 
easily delete old package announcements while keeping archives of the other 
lists longer.

One can expect people to subscribe to either fedora-list or 
fedora-announce-list but not both, and send all announcements to both lists, 
or else one can expect people who want to receive announcements to subscribe 
to fedora-announce-list, and send the announcements to that list. I vote for 
the latter.
