Thats an interesting point.

Andrei: How much time is there actually involved in keeping the list
running? 

I just subscribed, and I think this list may be useful for matters not
strictly related to debian (only), but nevertheless linux; I will see
how this works out ;). 

However, I don't think this list will be strictly necessary, just
convenient. So if you have to invest a considerable amount of time and
effort ("considerable" like in "I - Andrei - consider it considerable"), 
this list may very well be closed for its own good.
As someone already said, there are lots of alternatives around.
