FYI, typically moving a thread to www-archive gets many more people

read what leaks over into www-archive.
It's fine if you intended your post to do that; I just wanted to clarify
that it does not decrease the number of people you are "bothering".
Doug, that's a crock :) Anyone fool enough to actually subscribe to
www-archive gets exactly what they signed up for : anything. It just so
happens that www-archive generally has more interesting content than
most other W3C lists, so the gossip-hungry procrastinators amongst us
enjoy the list. It's my favourite.

How do you measure this?
Subscriber numbers do not really back this up:
