I think it would benefit the two types of readers if we could move Yesod-specific discussion to a separate mailing list.

I second this proposal and sentiment. I have nothing against Yesod, but I feel like I'm getting overwhelmed by emails that are too Yesod specific on this list.

I also have this problem. I posted a while ago that all I ever receive is yesod posts: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/web-devel/2010/000647.html I actually didn't unsubscribe, I just set a GMail filter. Recently I unset that to open some discussions. I noticed that I was actually missing out on general web-dev developments. But if I search "web-devel" in GMail, 14 out of the 20 results are yesod-specific. I created a test filter to remove "web-devel + yesod", but then I miss out on general posts where people merely mention yesod. 577 of 1224 *subjects* in the archive contain yesod.

* I would actually prefer pulling in the Snap and Happstack mailing lists to web-devel: I think there is a lot of room for better discussions if we're all talking together by default. I'm already subscribed to both mailing lists, and I don't think it will be a problem to include that traffic here.

I'm pretty sure that would make the problem worse. Then we would have yesod, happstack and snap "how do I do X?" questions to filter out. But anyway it seems more attractive these days for me to properly unsubscribe and get interesting web developments via Planet Haskell and Reddit or something. If you chaps want to get my attention specifically please drop me a mail or something.
