In moderation, yes.  Ie, once for a new set of disks which might be popular
is okay.  If someone were posting a regular "have the following N
distributions available" posting then I'd be more concerned about that.  (I
would, however, encourage people to respond directly to the person that
posted the announcements: "can you burn me a copy too" messages aren't
exactly the most thrilling for the rest of the list.)
