That seems like a *really* odd thing for one of the founders of the
world's most advanced OSS DBMS project to say. It's all relational
(which we do do pretty well) - we can add links to the wiki to threads
in the archives, and anything posted from then on is self-maintaining
(except when new threads are started - but even if each patch gets 5
threads that's not a huge chore).

I see no reason to go manually copying all 2k emails to the wiki.
