I really think that the mailing list pages should be blocked from search engines.
I agree. People need to be able to discuss matters openly and frankly.
I disagree. Having a track record is important. People in 5 years will need the records to see what we did and why we did it. It might cut down the flame-wars.
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.
