Re: Web-searchable list archives



Tim,
 
I think this is a terrific idea. A lot of these discussions have the potential for a very long shelf-life; certainly as long as any companion publication to my father's work would have. I'm impressed at the amount of work you are putting into it, but it certainly guarantees you a place in the history of science and philosophy at the very least. I would like to personally and publicly thank you for thinking of it.
 
Regards,
Judith Rosen

Subject: [ROSEN] Web-searchable list archives

FYI -
 
I have created an additional webpage on my website to store the monthly archives of our list posts. The monthly archives are quite large, and it would be quite tedious to manually convert the monthy logfiles into a pretty, threaded format. (Anyone out there a Perl expert?) So, I have just made them large webpages which will allow access by webcrawlers and for text searches; but readers are referred to the indexed archives on the Lsoft website for easier reading.
 
It may take up to a month for webcrawlers to update their databases with the new pages.
 
Regards,
Tim
