I am not subscribed to any beam lists myself, but in my position as a staffer at the Apache Software Foundation I do see that those updates generate a lot of emails and events for seemingly no reason, hence my ask. By essentially flooding the list with what looks like non-actionable noise, there is a risk of adding an unnecessarily higher bar to participation and reviewing that perhaps should be avoided if possible.
