Good Job GW!
Please consider (for later) either linking or making a wiki version for Meta. Thanks for making this effort.

All the shit from mailinglists is missing. For the temperature aka the understanding of the developments it is certainly as potent as some of the departures.
Hoi <grin> It is not the point but I will explain the point </grin>.
I think GW covered enough relevant points from the list. There are other sources that cover similar comments from here, and sifting through a few hundred long emails to find relevant quotes is going to be a time-consuming activity which will require editorial choices. Choices, which you and others might again disagree with. It's better to just cover big announcements and important messages (important being subjective).
Also, please try to avoid colorful language and be appreciative of someone else's effort.
