I agree as well but it is hard to get agreement about what, specifically,
is clutter and what is not.  That can easily turn into a non-terminating
discussion.

In order to provide the desirable uncluttering, without getting into a
discussion about what people consider clutter, I propose that we extend
Lars's proposal and put each of the ten classes of items into its own list
so that we have ietf-announce-{news, charters, closures, new-lists,
new-rfcs, telechats, doc-actions, conflict-reviews, last-calls,
interim-meetings} allowing people to subscribe what they want to see
without getting what *they *consider clutter.
