We've effectively argued it to death many many times over the course of the 
last few years.  Check the archives -- it's been thought up and re-thought up 
and dismissed each and every time.

Basic issue: nobody will want to sit on the newbie list because they'll end up 
answering all the same questions over and over since nobody really seems to 
want to read for themselves.

It's the same argument that comes around for forums, except that last time I 
think we actually witnessed a man lose his mind on the mailing list.  That 
was entertaining.  :-)
