That seems like a reasonable proposal. NANOG-OffTopic, NANOG-Discuss, NANOG-BizDev, NANOG-xyz, something (more more than one something).
The NANOG list seems to be leveraging Mailman, which does support topics.The topic feature allows you to subscribe to individual topics that you're interested in and specify if you want to receive messages that don't match any possible configured topic or not.
There is a relatively simple method to scan incoming messages and auto-populate the header that Mailman is looking at to determine topics so that people do not need to remember to set them.
I have had good luck with this methodology in the past. I would suggest trying it before splintering off to multiple NANOG subsidiary lists.
Other than that, I support a NANOG-Discuss list so that NANOG (announcement / broadcast) list has a higher operations SNR.
But topics. I believe they are an under utilized feature of Mailman. -- Grant. . . . unix || die
