Agreed.

It may be my anti-histamine-fogged brain, but I'm not quite sure I 
understand what you mean.  Could you clarify?

I'm not aware of anything we're keeping in this area with regard to 
Mailman.  We could link to some of the FAQs and RFCs on faqs.org, but 
there are so many different FAQs and RFCs that I fear we would 
seriously scare the bejeebies out of anyone who actually read such an 
entry.

There is always the Jargon File.  ;)

Please, feel free to take a whack at it.
