* Noise to signal ratio on gossip

   There have been a few totally offtopic posts recently to gossip by
   confused users. Those individuals have been pruned, and I beefed
   up the gossip subscription page to be extra clear. It may help
   a little bit.

 * >[re: import] How many messages are in the queue, and do you have
   >an ETA for the rest of the archive?

   Right now? About 100 messages in queue (Sundays are slow, so we get
   a chance to catch up). Anything not archived either is sitting in
   the secondary MX, was unarchivable, or ended up in some unexpected
   place. Yes, imports are a real pain, sorry.

 * >refusal to refresh in [Mac] Internet Explorer

   Sounds like a bug in Explorer; nobody else has reported this. If I
   remember correctly, I set certain Mail-Archive to transmit images 
   (i.e. the logo) with HTTP instructions that it was very cachable.
   Maybe this is freaking out your browser.

 * > Wishlist: Reply-To button

   The analog list archive (as a guinea pig) will now honor
   Reply-To headers. Should take effect with new messages.

 * New generation of hardware

   The current hardware is getting a bit long in the tooth. Anyone
   remember back when processor clock speed was measured in MHz? I'm
   working on new hardware (and maybe new hosting site) sometime after
   Debian 3.0 ships. Debian is scheduled to ship May 1, although my
   personal guess is June.
