my humble opinion is: all threads are discussion, if we're going to have many threads on a specific topic just move those threads in another mailing list. special things such as voting and polling people are best done with other tools such as google forms and others. i personally found ridiculous 100+ mail/day with "+1,+20,+N" for voting the logo.
