OK. Why are you answer a question specifically directed at, and in response to, something Wolfgang had written? And why have you taken it out of context? The context being that Wolfgang suggested that it is unnecessary to have a link to the archives in the footer since that link appears in the headers. Thus, my question to him was, if the link to the archives is unnecessary because of what is in the headers then doesn't it follow that the current footer contents are also unnecessary? It had zero to do with a question about the usefulness of what is currently in the footer. > I really do not know what's so hard about setting the list to put just > *one* sane thing in the footer: A web address for a landing page > specific to this mailing list.

I don't know if it is easy or hard to do. I'm not the list admin.

It seems to me the only suggested change to the "footer", until now, has been the addition of a link to the archives. -- If simple questions can be answered with a simple google query then why are there so many of them?
