Echoing others, this seems an accepted practice on the lists, endorsed at least in one instance by Peter Dalgaard: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2011-November/295496.html. 

Similarly,  Dirk has sent brief announcements for Rcpp training on the Rcpp list: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.rcpp/2334 I believe on R-SIG-HPC as well, but I don't have a link handy. 

List moderators will -- and have -- stepped in when it gets spammy: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.hpc/1338
