That seems like a *really* odd thing for one of the founders of the world's most advanced OSS DBMS project to say. It's all relational (which we do do pretty well) - we can add links to the wiki to threads in the archives, and anything posted from then on is self-maintaining (except when new threads are started - but even if each patch gets 5 threads that's not a huge chore). I see no reason to go manually copying all 2k emails to the wiki. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK Ltd: http://www.enterprisedb.com PostgreSQL UK 2008 Conference: http://www.postgresql.org.uk
