Well, for the purposes I care about a static dump of the actual pages
for example would work well enough. I don't really think it is easier to
get though (in a sane way, not just a wget over all issues and
attachments or something like that, though it would work as an
"emergency" solution if you ignore that it's rather a lot of effort).
