This question seems to come up periodically on most lists. On those lists with the name as part of the subject, people ask that it be removed to get rid of the clutter and the repeat of the list name with each message in screen readers. The lists which don't have the name in the subject get complaints because the individuals aren't always sure which list a message is from. So, the bottom line is that you can't please all the people all of the time. This list, along with many others does not have the list name in the subject. Since I purchased a braille display a couple of years ago I've really learned to appreciate not having the list name present as it significantly reduces the amoung of scrolling you have to do in order to read a subject line. For those who want to find a better way of grouping and identifying messages, try looking at the options in your email program. Virtually all mail programs today have some means of filtering and sorting messages. It's easier to track messages if you filter them into separate folders for each list you subscribe to for example, and also you can sort messages by subject which makes following a thread and responding much easier. One disadvantage of including the list name as part of the subject is that it often becomes difficult or impossible to sort messages by subject so it really makes better sense to encourage users to start using message filtering and leave the message handling to each individual so that it can better fit their personal needs. Thanks for your attention, and I hope this answers the questions concerning this topic.
