Seconded.  At this point, I would suggest the right answer is to make
sure the arm lists on vger have adequate archives (there are plenty of
list archiving services to choose from, including gmane; I'd suggest
using at least two for redundancy), and then forward to Linus a patch
which changes the mailing list pointers to vger.

It's clear that Russell is to stressed out to do a good job, and the
vger lists are very well run without having the spam problems that
Russell seems to be struggling to solve w/o using sledgehammer-to-kill-a-
gnat style solutions.
