My point is, we should be careful with large email attachments. Rather than posting them to multiple lists, anything other than brief ASCII text should probably be posted to a website somewhere, and only the URL forwarded around.

Not only does this avoid choking low-speed email clients, but it means you automatically get the latest version of the document if it is updated after it is announced but before you get around to reading it. If you send the document in email and then update it, you have to waste that bandwidth all over again.
