I think it's good. We have discussions here about technical issues, and
then those discussions are archived so that someone else with a similar
problem will find those discussions on a search. When I search for any
kind of technical help on Google I normally end up reading archives of
mailing lists where someone else had the same problem as me.
Those people who don't want their thoughts to be archived (there are at
least a couple of posters to this list in this position) can add an
"X-No-Archive: yes" header to their posts and then they don't get
archived.
That's why I like the idea :)
