I don't think this is strictly necessary because there's more than lore that archive's our lists, but the people at the internet history project would remind me not to look a gift horse in the mouth, so I think this would certainly be a useful addition. The thing which Link: doesn't necessarily track is iterations, so if you replied to v2 and your feedback got incorporated, there's a v3 iteration which has a different msgid. Is there a way of getting this full history, not just the current thread? > I'm just not sure if this will help with the subject of the > conversation, or if it does not serve the goal of recognizing > developer contributions by making them more visible. I added Jon to the cc since a lot of managers (community or otherwise) do use the lwn.net stats as a performance guide. The real question is could we get something measurable out of the data? say number of replies to an accepted patch counting in the reviewer stats or something?
