When render@xfree86.org was retired (3 January 2003), it was
consolidated into xfree86@xfree86.org which has a much, much lower SNR
for me, (where I define signal as technical discussion that I care
about).

At that time I wasn't aware of the possibility of posting to
devel@xfree86.org, (if it even existed).

Historically? Wasn't this a private list until quite recently? I know
I only learned about it recently, (and the archives linked to from
xfree86.org only date back to 30 January 2003).
