This is a good point and shows the level of detail that is preserved

part of the reason that the Linux kernel has continued to use mailing

their case.
Talking of such things, I noticed a couple weeks ago that the Gmane link
at https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel doesn't work .
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane :
"In July 2016, Ingebrigtsen announced that he was considering shutting
Gmane down, and the web interface was taken offline.^[2]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane#cite_note-2> ^[3]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane#cite_note-3> In August 2016 Gmane
was acquired by Yomura Holdings. Only the message spool was transferred,
with the software behind the site having to be redeveloped.^[4]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane#cite_note-4> ^[5]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane#cite_note-5> On the 6 September
2016, it was announced that the Gmane web interface would be coming
online again.^[6] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane#cite_note-6>
However, by February 2018 a LWN.net
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LWN.net> article observed that the web
interface did "never [...] return, breaking thousands of links across
the net. The front page still says 'some things are very broken' and
links to a blog page that was last updated in September 2016."^[7]
