I'm noodling around with the idea of creating an archive and index of all of the messages to the mailing list over the years for purposes of quickly finding all of the messages that have definitive information on a given topic. Simply searching on Google or through my mail spool just doesn't cut it, since there's too much discussion and too little decision (I'm not calling it signal-to-noise, since that's somewhat pejorative, and I'm not trying to say the discussion is useless, just not usually what I'm looking for).
An archive for many Perl mailing lists already exists at: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/ You should be able to use this to seed yours. -- Darren Duncan
