I disagree. Having a track record is important. People in 5 years<br>
will need the records to see what we did and why we did it. It

What about archiving the mailing list locally, but not having that
available to crawlers so that it's hidden from Google and Yahoo! and
such? That way there would be a record, but people would have to come to
the Wikipedia to see it. <br><br>
