TEST TEST TEST TEST!!!

The docs for this mailing list is so slow and crappy, I had to try to see if 
this would work, since no one else will (The email-bot-thingy).

Can you expand?  Which `docs' exactly and why?

The http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/mailing-lists/ page (like most others) 
has a payload of ~10k (5k text + 5k image).  That's pretty light and 
I've found it pretty snappy across the slowest of links (I'm told web 
designers get given a per-page payload of ~100k, outch!).

I thought this was probably a troll, actually.

Ah, that interface I've never used (I've used listserv and majordomo in
the past though).

Any way, can you post this to gdb@.
