Perhaps it's time to think about enhancements to the NANOG list...?

This is one of the reasons that I really prefer the dynamic topic 
detection.  If messages in a thread no longer have the necessary key 
words which define a topic, Mailman doesn't consider it to be part of 
that topic.  If a different thread veers into a topic and has the 
necessary key words which define the other topic, Mailman considers it 
to be part of that other topic.
