+Data model!
+
+Dynamic data lookup should opportunisticly cache any associated cheap data. For instance, there are three data from stat(/srv/git/$reponame.git), so looking up one should grab the others. Jules points out that everything here is inherently cached, and I should be using getpw*() for passwd parsing.

+I can presumably get mailing lists into ikiwiki using one of the following:

+- MLM+Ikiwiki [comment-by-mail plugin](http://ikiwiki.info/todo/comment_by_mail/)

+But how would we get it into git? Might we have to do that externally?
