There is something to be said for having the list be purely
conversational and thus not officially archived at all.  I would not
object to such a policy.  Announcements which are posted to the list
could continue to available on the website as announcements, rather than
as archived messages.  But what if one or more list members chose to
privately archive the messages?  I don't see any way to prevent that.
Would there be any support for having a list policy that message content
which has not otherwise been made public, shall not be disseminated
outside WSFA?
