My idea was that to "show off" activity, OpenHub seems as better tool than  
anything
we could ask from mailman, since it's built (also) for that purpose.

For example, we could show some traffic stats/chart somewhere on  
openlmi.org.  Or
retrieve the stats and send them to the mailing list.  (They do provide  
[API][2]
and there are also some bindings available.)
