I would say that would just spam the mailing list, especially around the
time of GSoC with so many new students joining the mailing list. Better to
send new joiner private messages with all kinds of helpful links and rules
etc(this will reduce beginners traffic too)... some people might just be
interested in observing the development. On the other hand people who want
to do something can always type a mail themselves.

To me as a new joiner it seems more welcoming to receive welcome message
than publishing welcome message to mailing list.
