I'd agree that it leaves a LOT to be desired.

not broken?! ...are we talking about this:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/
I'd call it flaky at best.

The real point of my post is that at least one usable alternative
exists:
http://marc.10east.com/?l=fedora-list&r=1&w=3
And maybe that's all we need, is one alternative. I'd be easy if that
was redhat's site, but it's good and right that others provide support
too. What I find much more troubling than redhat's lack of a good
archive is the lack of good pointers from anywhere 'officially branded '
_to_ these types of community sites. But I digress...
