Many issues are not version-specific, and may continue to be an issue
for several releases. That means that archive browsing will be n times
more time consuming, where n is the current Fedora release. Also, new
Fedora released come out twice a year. I'll not be able to keep up
with the mailing lists that I'd have to add myself to. Of course, I
would not unsubscribe from the old lists because interesting or
relevant threads may pop up.

That could be a good idea, but it should have a lot of disclosure
regarding privacy and list volume. Maybe a link to TFA would be
better.
