How many users are subscribed to the gentoo-dev-announce ML? The
very name suggests that this is development announce, not something
related to our users.

We already duplicate Last-rites messages to gentoo-dev ML, why not
add gentoo-user here too? Why do we need to duplicate Last-rites on
gentoo-dev in the first place? I suppose there are two reasons:

1) even not all devs are subscribed to gentoo-dev-announce;
2) this is a moderated list, which creates some delays.
