BTW, I found a few Nabble archives listed below. We should consider
adding these to our mail lists page.
BTW, is there any reason why we shouldn't add them? I don't want to
start showing preference for one 'donor' over another. Anyone object
to my adding a link to these Nabble archives to the appropriate
mailing list pages?
We could also add more stuff to gmane using this info:
http://gmane.org/import.php
I'm happy to do this, but I want to make certain it's ok first.

Sounds good. Since SVN is down right now, and I'll be out of town
this weekend, I won't be able to commit changes until next week.

That'll be cool!

I've already added links to Nabble on the XML Graphics site:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/mail.html#public_archives
FOP also contains links to Nabble:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/maillist.html

As you can see on fop-users, many people post to fop-users through
Nabble rather than through their mail client. It's quite popular already
and I don't see any reason why we shouldn't provide the link.
I'd simply note that the "main" mailing list archives are the mbox
archives and the mod_mbox archives on the ASF hardware.
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/mail/
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/
I assume we'll get full-text search capabilities for mod_mbox during
summer as part of the Google Summer of Code.
