Moving list configuration data to another backend system (ie something different from python dbs) would be a big step forward. Aside from easier backups and "offline" data manipulation it would transfer the job of synching data to the underlying db architecture. > Another approach which you can find discussed somewhat in the archives > of this and/or the mailman-developers list is to have one live > installation and a second 'hot spare' installation.

Anyway, as the externalization of the db tier, this would leave the archives out of the game. p. -- pbm - "All stories are love stories."
