But I did mention that the newsgroup messages can still be
archived and made available via pipermail, so python-dev
access would be no worse than what there is now.

Excepting there is already a proliferation of spun off
lists in python-dev (eg, to egroups).  So this is a suggestion
on how to pull them together in one place.
