I am working on a Drupal.org readme which I will post on my scratch site for Doc team review (hopefully soon) that will have this information. Essentially a brief overview readme to how to use the Drupal.org site/community. Mainly links and short instructions. Kind of a help text for the site....

Amen my brother. :)

Which is odd, but the sheer volume of information available and customs followed on the site/lists/etc are obviously overwelming.

It truly is, and doesn't have to be either. Choice is good but Drupal.org is a tad excessive. Communication methods ("push vs pull", like mailing lists, forums, RSS, IRC, books, comments, etc.) should be broad and flexible -- this is how you "get" information -- but the information itself should be single-sourced, following a global taxonomy of subject matter and topic areas. Either that, or your search engine needs to be of Google quality. This fragmentation and dilution of information needs to be minimized; I'm eagerly awaiting this "how to use Drupal" documentation.

What happened to having the bug reports and updates getting mailed to this mailing list?

http://drupal.org/project/issues/subscribe

This was advertised here. Yes, this link is barely advertised on drupal.org :(
