What's noise to you is signal to others. For example, my interest is
servers, so all of your X.org posts are mostly noise to me, but to
others it's essential signal. Same goes for the scientific re-org
recently discussed. And I'm sure the same goes for PHP & webapp
stuff.

I think a -dev-announce ML is a good idea, with reply-to set to -dev.
But I also think you're over-exaggerating the situation by a long way,
sorry.
Best regards,
