Personally, I believe in the use of a single link to which all the
information given is displayed, such as:

For important discussion list information please go to: <URL>

Upon going to the URL all the information in the footer will be
clearly displayed *and* explained.

For example, many do not realize that they need to send their
unsubscription messages using the e-mail address to which the
discussion list messages are sent to them, and also that they aren't
unsubscribed until they reply to the confirmation message again using
their subscription address.

The bug track also needs explanation and introduction etc.

A separate web page will also give us the opportunity not to have to
be concerned about how big the list is. We can add other information
such as the subscription link to TBOT and what TBOT is.

A direct link to the discussion list charter rules may also be given
since it's not so easily found in the FAQ.

The FAQ link can be given with the encouragement that one should check
there before asking questions on the list and that it's growth and
development is influenced by the common questions asked on the list.
The same for the links to the archive and adding that the archive is a
free external service that we cannot influence etc.
