I usually don't chime in on these sorts of things but had a few thoughts as I see both sides.
1. Sending multiple emails with short updates does tend to clutter up an in-box and do take time to delete; especially for those of us who travel for work and view/remove our email via our iPhone. 2. That being said, the information does tend to be interesting, so perhaps a compromise can be reached? 3. Would it be possible to place all updates in a daily digest, as opposed to sending them individually? Or perhaps an apple OS/IOS update list serve could be created just for this purpose? I do tend to view this list as a sort of tech-support list for blind users of Mac products, not a list for every tidbit of "potential" information. Remember, much of this information is rhumors, not verified information.
