Please drop the above the next time.

FWIW, I only said "_at least_ you need consent from them", and it was not
meant to be an exhaustive list.  "blame -C -C -C" may tell you more.

You are the party that wants this relicensing, not me.  Please do not
burden me with excessive legwork for you, but help me a bit more
proactively to make this happen.

Oh, I never said "do not use message ID".  I said "message ID alone is not
good enough for most people".  Users of gmane and notmuch who know the
tool they use would benefit from having message ID, _too_, but even if you
were a user of notmuch, unless you have subscribed to the list and have
your own archive, you wouldn't be able to say "show id:frotz".
