I don't have a great solution to offer... I think the "community" here  
is probably too new to split into separate "alerts" and "discussion"  
lists.  I also personally don't care which type of list it is.  But I  
would suggest this difference in expectations is perhaps at the route  
of the original comment and others that have been on the list.

When a subject becomes uninteresting to a person, all he/she has to do is select based on the subject line and mass delete the thread.  It's not too hard.  I don't think the list has enough momentum to fragment it already.  

It would be nice, though, if folks could clean up the traceroutes a bit before posting.  For example, remove the delay times when just showing there's connectivity to a particular destination.  Many traceroutes are a hard to read mess.
