When I saw the manitou-mail.org stuff some days ago I was curious -- how
feasible would it be to host our web archives using a database of some
sort, instead of the current mbox-based Mhonarc installation we use,
which is so full of problems and limitations?

I wondered about using Oryx some time ago, and got in contact with
Abhijit Menon-Sen to that end, but that never fructified.
