OTOH this is a very low bandwidth list, and many users would probably be
happy to hear more often about the progress of Emacs development.
So, while it would triple the bandwidth (instead of one message per
release, we'd have 3: "freeze", "unfreeze", and "release"), Emacs users
may actually enjoy knowing a bit more about the development status of
the next release.
