...in a reasonable format, that is. Check out
http://hyperreal.com/httpd/mail/
There are the compressed monthly archives, except for the current month,
which is added to as soon as a post is made. For months earlier than the
current one, go to the "95" directory and the appropriate month, and
you'll see that month's traffic in its full uncompressed hypermail glory.
Note to the feature fiends - it would be Really Cool to be able to have
my files compressed like foo.html.gz and a request for foo.html run
gunzip on the file server-side if the browser can't handle gzip - I
noticed that if I gzipped everything, it would send the file gzipped to
Mac netscape which doesn't understand x-gzip as an encoding. It worked
fine for X netscape and X Mosaic, but none else
Eventually this should be linked into www.apache.org, as well as
searchable via glimpse/WAIS. If someone would like to write a perl
script or two to automate the creation of index.html's in /mail and
/mail/95, and that runs the right command on hypermail each month, feel
free...
Having the archives out there is a good way to show people how decisions
were made by the group, how we attacked problems, why patches were
vetoed, who played what roles, etc. If we're an open group, which we
are, this is a Good Thing to have - the mail archives have always been
available via FTP anyways.
