[Marc MERLIN]

I had the implement the following patches on SF's mailman:

(I am missing the link in the admin page, but that's ok)

Is there  a way to  add the archive  URL in the list  options and the  UI (I
thought  about  doint  it,  but  I'm  not  too  familiar  with  the  datbase
compatibility issues  and the problems with  adding a new field  in the list
options)

Thanks,
Marc
