Actually, there is a really good reason not to use dpaste (or a
similar alternative) - it breaks the integrity of the Django-users
archive. If dpaste ever goes away, or expires old pastes, then a
valuable resource is lost. If we cant say "search the archives for an
answer", then one of the big reasons for having a mailing list in the
first place is lost.
