I don't think that's a valid assumption. The current copies, since they're one to an ITP, include the name of the software being packaged in the subject line. If there's one which mentions software I'm familiar with, I'm far more likely to read the ITP message and possibly subscribe to it in the BTS to get further updates. The vast majority of ITP messages I simply delete unread, having seen only their subject lines. If these were aggregated into a digest, fitting the names of all the relevant software into the subject would be unlikely a lot of the time. As such, list subscribers are far less likely to spot one for software they might care about. -- Jeremy Stanley
