[sudo-discuss] Banning HTML

[GtwoG PublicOhOne]

Presumably due to security risks or bloat issues that are more important
than whatever benefits it provides.  Email lists are malware targets,
and people don't like it when their app or device bogs down from loading
or executing needless bloat. 

For that matter, embedded links also ought to go, and people should post
actual URLs rather than hide them under highlighted text.  That's also a
security issue for malware, spyware, etc.
