The post-only "list" is meant to solve problems like these:
http://lists.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/post-only

I need them to be sent to language-bindings, please. It's too much work
to hunt through all the individual lists for particular annoucements. I
am on those lists, but please assume that I don't really follow them.

language-bindings is not the place for general bindings announcements,
mostly because gnome-announce exists for this and because it has a more
suitable audience. Language-bindings is for implementors of bindings,
and the maintainer of the X-language binding probably isn't interested
in a minor release of Y-language binding. But the wider community at
gnome-announce is interested.
