And you have to understand that we understand that. No one's
claiming your copyright, merely implicit permission to create an
archive.

You have been warned over and over in this thread that Debian can
and will archive anything sent to their lists, and that we consider
sending stuff to the list permission to do so. If you didn't want it
archived, you could stop sending stuff to the lists.
I guess, in liu of that, we could charge you $1000 a post for usage
of our mail server, like we do spammers.

Are you ever going to mention the arguments that it's not your
right?

Bah. That's the search engine's problem. If it's important, _they_
should not archive mail archives. I don't see any reason to make
that decision for them.

You have been informed over and over that Debian will archive
anything posted to its lists, and considers your posting permission.
If you chose to continue using Debian resources by posting after
that, I don't see why we have any obligation to remove your posts,
legal or otherwise.

If you didn't want a permanent post, don't use a permanent medium
like email. Try calling next time. Once you've made a permanent
copy, be it on paper or hard disk, it's permanent.
