s/wak/weak/, of course.

Additionally, gmane articles do expire (also from the web interface), so 
it's not a replacement for our archives. I've also asked MARC if they 
can import our archives; they've done so for other mailinglists in the 
past but it can sometimes take quite some time to get a response from 
them. Their search engine is also weak, as it mangles search terms (just 
like gmane, for example replacing '.' with ' '), with no way of quoting 
that out, which can be pretty damn annoying on a technical list... but 
it's better than nothing. Google site-searching is not sufficient since 
Google only indexes once every few weeks, if you're lucky.
