If people want searchable archives and RSS then let's find a solution that doesn't include this guy (opensubscriber.com) who clearly just wants his GoogleAds revenue at the expense of my privacy.
I'm not opposed to that, but if past experience is any judge, it won't happen.
I objected strenuously to de-linking from Google because of the email issue. It solved one problem I really don't care about (the availability of my email address) by creating a much bigger problem I care very much about -- removing the ability to search the archives.
Sure, an in-house, members-only searchable archive would be ideal, but it seems there is absolutely no interest from anyone about actually making that happen. For now, OpenSubscriber is the best we're going to get, and if we de-link, we'll be back to zero, with no searchable archives and virtually no prospect of ever getting them.
