Let me throw in that I am subscribed to the DBI mailing list just for
DBD:pg, so I have to read other message that don't relate ot DBDpg, and
it is kind of a pain. Fortunately, there is _very_ little traffic, and
PG probably counts for 1/3rd of it, so it isn't that bad, but it is a
similar case where I getting email I have no interest in just in case a
DBD:pg item comes up. Seems these guys are in the same boat, wanting to
do a focused marketing thing but not interested in the other stuff.
