The current ML archive is huge - think a few GB's - one of the reasons that I have google search all foo-projects mailinglists. There is a primitive search interface using google at:

http://foo-projects.org/node/23

it would be trivial to merge this functionality with the new site - that would be something I'll do for you.

mocha could handle it but the ML archives are on espresso - hence the reason I picked google instead of figuring out something myself.
