Luciano, release announcements and security disclosures. Jordan, can you clarify what you understand by "be maintained"? Just to be clear, this is a one time operation, and as far as I know, comes with no maintenance costs whatsoever. So the "too much" part of "too much for little gain" doesn't appear to make sense.
The announce@ list is typically subscribed to by press/analyst folks, security/sysadmin folks, and people interested in new releases but who have no interest in participating in the community. I believe a low-volume announcement channel like this could be beneficial for most projects. It certainly couldn't hurt to at least recommend/suggest this as a list when setting up the podling.
