 Is making the archive rsync'able a responsibility of the

Yes. It's a file. That level of control should be left to the OS and how you configure standard tools like rsync or ssync.


                    or... wouldn't it be better to build
 such support in Mailman (to allow people who are OC
 about getting the complete list to save time and avoid
 wasting gobs of bandwidth)?

Do you really want to include all the rsync code into mailman? I don't think so.
