Yeah, I still think it is good to consolidate our resources onto this
one mailing list. We could always make something like clipart-activity
and host all these notifications, svn/cvs commits, automated reports on
for ppl. who only want discussion. However, the good thing about having
all these messages is that it encourages developers to jump in and keeps
people posted.

Anyway, I'm curious to hear other opinions on this as these things are
not set in stone.

I would say, ideally, it would be better to have more participants and
regular traffic to warrant creating another list...
