If you compare with last month's statistics posting, you'll
notice that some of the numbers of previous months changed
lightly. That's something mysterious Mailman's archiver keeps
on doing, probably on orders from the cyber division of the
Ministry of Truth ...

Overall activity kept on increasing also in November, with
the growth coming from Milkymist while Qi-Hardware remained
slightly below the levels of October.

The traffic volume on the Milkmist list is a bit inflated
relative to Qi-Hardware because a lot of it are patches,
while Qi-Hardware has mainly discussion and code usually
passes through different channels.
