But does that imply it has to be integrated into mailman? Or just available.
The only reason I see for it to be fully integrated is if we want to
add a header pointing to the article in the archive -- that would
require archive processing during delivery. Other than that, it can
be post -processed, so it wouldn't need to be part of hte main MLM
code, it simply has to interface with it. That'd allow both pieces to
be managed separately.

I'm toying with that, actually.
