Cool.  Would you be willing to eventually setup another "Bug Fixes
Archive Server" image, running on your box in parallel with the current
PWS-MailArchiveAction image and accessible from, say,
http://swiki.gsug.org/bugfixesarchive ?

The BugFixArchive-Model framework has the beginnings of an API to
replace the PWS-MailArchive stuff -- at least from a back-end
perspective.  Right now the 1.1 API provides an email-file-repository
directory with static email .txt files ( and subdirectories with
extracted attachments ).  You could configure your Apache to just serve
up those static files without hitting Squeak at all.

I don't have any interest in replacing the HTML-generation stuff, but it
would be really helpful, for example, to be able to hit
http://swiki.gsug.org/bugfixesarchive/uids and just get text/plain
MIMEDocument with a descending-sort list of UIDs.  By the way, Dainel,
that's why the "textDoc" method is in there -- I was looking to the
future.
