What I deeply miss from gentoo-dev mailing list is lack of  summary at
end of discussions. Current situation is that at the end of such
disputes very often (of course not always :) is still unclear if:
* decision has been made (and what it is)
* previous approach has been changed (or it hasn't, with pointer (URL) to it)
* documents were updated (to address change or to simply provide
better wording) w/ URLs
* nothing has been changed due to X, and next approach will be in X months.

It's even more difficult to grasp outcome for non native english speakers.

Solution I propose is, that author of the first post in a thread, who
started the discussion (if there was some discusion), should at end of
it (let's assume it's 3 days after last mail) write summary with those
4 points I outlined above. Simple and will help greatly to track later
decisions/changes, or postponed items.
