I have seen such a split work on other lists (my local unix users
group list, for example). It seems to keep most people happy.
Personally, I'm happy with the list volume at present---I've developed
my own methods[1] for dealing with email volume.
If Shawn needs to upgrade Zuiko just to cope with current volume, I'm
not sure sanctioning increased social use of the list is wise.
