A small number of lists will:
So here I have to agree with Graham - let's keep the number of lists down (please).
But what I am sensing from the discussion is that many people are dissatisfied with the GD format (even though some are clearly not). Speaking for myself, I find the subject matter interesting (although, like Jane I don't really care about the stuff outside the Dragon Pass/Prax region). But I almost never do more then scan the list of subject lines 'cos I find it too hard to find material.
The choice seems simple to me. Either GD is changed to become accessible (i.e. allow the choice of individual mails and a daily digest) or people will vote with their feet and go elsewhere.

Yes let's compromise - allow GD subscribers to have individual emails rather than the one size fits all daily digest. Then everyone will be happy.
Best regards,
Ian.
