After reading the whole thread so far, also +1.  From my POV, there's a
separate debate about whether we should have a public mailing list at all
(which I'm completely neutral about), but given a public mailing list,
the archives should be public.  There's no reason to force someone to
sign up for the list just to read past discussions.
