Quite the contrary, it is an even larger problem to be subscribed to an
increasingly large number of ever fragmenting lists. Additionally, a
read-only announce list would serve to stifle community discussion of WMF
announcements. If the Foundation wants to have an announce list and then
cross post all announcements to announce-l and foundation-l it wouldn't be
so problematic but I doubt such a list would have a large number of
subscribers.
