I agree.  Unless... do some people subscribe to haskell@ (not 
haskell-cafe@) and like the existing stuff that's sent there (not all 
announcements... I'm not sure if I'd call e.g. Oleg's occasional 
demonstrations "announcements" even)?  I'm not sure if it seems right to 
leave those people out of the discussion by not holding the discussion 
in the haskell@ list.  Would it be off-topic?(would list subscribers 
agree on the answer to that?)  I guess it is a good thing to change 
names so that topics are clearer, somehow...

Maybe, but I'm doubtful... (it might seem different to me in a year 
though, i.e. some amount of time after a -->haskell-announce@ change has 
been made.)
