Mailing Lists

Hey folks,

I'm working on the CD image for PostgreSQL again. It's now at
quite a healty size of 664 megs, and grows daily as the mailing
list archives grow.

The lists are taking up >50% of the cd. I'm curious about people's
opinions. The archives are a valuable resource. But out of those
who have ever bought a cd, or those that would,

Would you use the archives off the cd ?

Consider the point, that these archives are possibly outdated when
you receive the cd, and that the Live archives on www.postgresql.org
are searchable.

Depending on the consensus, we will either remove the archives from
the cd distro all together, or find an alternate method of storing
them on it.

I'm also taking any suggestions to make the archives on the cd searchable.

Thanks
