[Tagging] Consensus switching away from mailinglists? Was: Time to split the list?

[bkil]

On second thought, I think it would be legal if we only hosted a
search index of the discussions at a static hosting solution (let's
call it GitLab/GitHub/BitBucket/gitea Pages or any static web hosting
basically). This would not contain any recognizable phrases from the
original emails, but only a coded representation about words and their
occurrence in mails. This actually sounds like a fun project to
implement.

It's really hard to find old OSM discussions these days - Google just doesn't index them - and that impacts the tagging@ list more than others.
