Thanks!

Speaking only for myself, I tend to prefer using Free Software tools when I
can for any given tasks, and Google Groups is certainly not Free Software.

Granted, Kallithea project is using a proprietary bugtracker and Wiki right
now, but I think that's not our long term plan.

But, that's in my mind all the more reason to not add yet another proprietary
dependency.

I note that someone submitted it to Gmane just in the last few hours, so I
suspect there will be an easy way to search it.

Also, we have archives at:
   http://lists.sfconservancy.org/pipermail/kallithea-general/
which will presumably slowly but surely be indexed by search engines.
