Interesting idea.  The archives are monthly, large, and are currently
available by direct request (email me at coder@null.net).  I could see
doing one of a few things: 

  1) Auto-send each month's archive to all members as the month ends. 
This is likely to be unpopular due to the archive's size, especially
as list traffic grows.

  2) Run a seperate subscription list for being sent the archives each
month.  This is simplest for me.

  3) Make the archives available on the upcoming web site with its
associated concerns on exposing email addresses (see the thread on
making the list public).
