In this text:

   o  Provide a link on each row of the list to the URL for that row's
      message.

   o  Add an export type that produces a file containing a list of URIs
      to each message in in the list.

   o  Add a hint to the UI that double-clicking on a row in the list
      will open a single-message view of the associated message in a
      separate view.
      
"in the list" means "in the message list display", doesn't it? That may be obvious in context, but I found myself wondering if someone could think things like "oh, they want a list of URIs to each message in the mailing list", or something equally confused. 
      
"in (in) the list" has an extra "in", since I'm commenting on this text anyway.

I agree with Stephen that it'd be very nice to still have access to the old "by date" and "by thread" archive format.

I have a requirement to ask about. Note that I am not trying
to convince you now to accept this if you don't want to, I'm
just asking for clarification, as to whether or not you mean
you'll meet my requirement. If your answer is "no, that's not
what's meant" then please do consider this as a new feature
request, and handle those as you think best, as part of this
work, or later, or never. Here's my question:

- Does section 3 mean that there'll be a way to get from the
usual https://mailarchive.ietf.org/ view to an equivalent
mhonarc view? I'd like if one could do that for an individual
message or (maybe) a thread. I'd be ok if that function
stopped working if we decided to not keep mhonarc archives
too, but I, and I think some others, prefer mhonarc's
simplicity when I don't need to search, and a lot of IETF list
information pages now send me to this new archive so having a
way to get to the mhonarc equivalent would be great. (That
might also be a way to meet some of your non-JS requirement
maybe?)

- section 2.7: thank you!
