Hey folks, In cruising around the web I've lately noticed a number of other mailing lists with way-cool web based archiving. Posts to the list get automatically converted to html, stored in the archive, and sorted with cool thread indexing. There's nifty search features, forward/back links, the whole bit. I want one for Looper's Delight too! What we have now is manually generated by me, which means it never gets updated, and you don't get any of those other cool navigation features. As I understand, these archives are being done with a freeware Perl program called mhonarc, in combination with another program called glimpse for searching. So, any of you Unix and Perl experts want to take a crack at this? Seems to me you might need to know a reasonable amount about how mail servers work too. I briefly looked at the web pages though, and there seems to be plenty of documentation and examples so I don't imagine it would be that difficult. Here's the pages: http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/mhonarc.html http://donkey.CS.Arizona.EDU/webglimpse/ any volunteers? pretty-please? remember: if it weren't for people pitching in to help out around here, Looper's Delight would really suck. we need you! kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
