If it goes on a mailing list then newcomers to the net will never know about it. This is a problem to a whole class of news worthy stuff. It would be great if some serious discussion took place to create a GOOD solution like an policy class of article that hung around (if the site told it to) and only disapeared when the update came along. Then you would only have to look at it when it got updated. Those who chose not to look at it would never see it again.
