First, I think 8%-13% is a good bit. But more to the point, it could
be much worse. Consider how it would be if everyone announced as
regularly as you do.

Personally, I wish they did. I often learn of new projects just by
chance --usually a mention on some blog. I would like to encourage
more people to make announcements --even those little 0.0.1 bumps. I
like to see it become a very regular habit of all ruby developers. But
if that happened then we can expect that percentage to shoot way way
up.

I also suspect that many people do not announce b/c they don't want to
add too much "noise" to the list or they don't want to announce their
wares for "all to see" if they don't feel is quite up to snuff yet. If
there was a separate list they could feel more at ease about these
considerations, and as a result the whole community could benefit.

You used to think so too. Do you think now that the lack of
announcements would make ruby-talk worse?

Many people access the list via other means. I use Google Groups.
There is also Usenet and Ruby Forum, among others.  Filtering is not
always so straight-forward.

Yes, I think they would. See above.

There's a fine line between calculation and speculation --I think they
call it evaluation.

I think you make very good points. But something like this cannot work
without being official ruby-lang.org list.
