+1 We need an official channel for reference information about, at the very least, milestones/releases and security updates. We also need it for major community events (think announce the next design summit or upcoming elections). So far we (ab)used the general mailing-list for that, and I think the amount of traffic now makes it an inappropriate channel for reference information. We never used the existing -announce list because it was never exposed as the medium for reference information. An -announce list still sounds like the best way to achieve that. You can have direct posters like security or release team. You can have a moderation team so that anyone can potentially post reference information. That doesn't mean we can't use other channels like Twitter, blogs, G+, newsletter or whatever is cool these days, but none of those are actually a reference channel, so they are complementary rather than a replacement. If we go for -announce and -dev, I think we should use the "classic" names and move the openstack@lists.launchpad.net to openstack-us...@lists.openstack.org. Then it would make sense to merge openstack-operators into it.
