	I don't see this in the FAQ.  Perhaps I am using the wrong
	URL?  I have: http://www.list.org/faq.html .  I would be
	very interested in that stats script if someone would be so
	kind enough to send me a copy.  The Mailman-Users archives
	are rather large and, unfortunately, not searchable.

	From email I have gotten, it seems like the executive summary
	is that it is totally safe to rotate/archive these logs and
	that they hold no state that Mailman needs to operate, which
	is what I was hoping for.
