[...] The Consortium staff, I would imagine, hasn't unlimited time (and energy) to keep up with the volume and might appreciate an organized approach to the torrent of X related information coursing through the list at present. So, a question to the Consortium folks who do this work and care about this particular issue: Would splitting up the list to mirror some of the proposed newsgroup categories be such an administrative chore as to be prohibitive as contrasted to the benefits of breaking it up? I'm in agreement with Bob that the list maintainers have much of the say as to what will eventually be done.
