I'll add my vote to using the [topic] markers. This works well for other
Apache projects like Jakarta Commons. I think they've split of some separate
mailing lists, but this was based on the sheer volume for certain projects.

I'd also add using the [topic] markers in subject line of JIRA issues too,
but that may not be everyone's liking.
