The rationale is that in 2012 we have better ways to send announcements
out: blogs, RSS, twitter, G+, newsletters, etc. Besides, the list

In any case, my  idea is to replace the list with a newsletter: people
interested in receiving regular updates (like the weekly newsletter I
send out) will subscribe there.
