_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matty Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2006 5:24 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] ActiveDir.Org Web Site Update [List Admin] Hi All, I just want to update you on some recent changes to the ActiveDir.Org <http://www.activedir.org/> site. As you may know, the last attempt at publishing the Mail List's archives on ActiveDir.Org was a complete disaster. The software we were using (Mhonarc) just couldn't keep up with the volume (I actually suspect it was also due to the length of some of Joes mails - only joking ;-)). The good news is we finally got around to developing our own solution (this time with extremely long field lengths ;-)) so you can now find the archives back on-site again here <http://www.activedir.org/ma/default.aspx> . The archive is updated hourly. Its fully RSS'd so you can subscribe to the main archive feed if you prefer to view posts in that way. If you are that keen on following a particular thread, we also maintain a separate feed for each separate thread. Another recent update that is also related to the List Archive is the new Posters <http://www.activedir.org/ma/posters.aspx> feature. This feature categorises the lists archive by sender and will publish all threads that you have ever been involved in. You need to be registered with <http://www.activedir.org/register.aspx> ActiveDir.org (with the same email address as you use to subscribe to the list) in order publish your threads to the Posters page. Here's an example of Tony's posts Posters page: http://www.activedir.org/ma/posters.aspx?id=2 It's kind of like having your own ActiveDir Mail List Blog. We encourage you to join in the fun ;-). Again there is a feed so you can subscribe to only specific posters messages if you choose to do so. The nice option here is you can link this feed from your own blog/web site or from your message footer when posting to the list. What about an archive/site search? There isn't one at the moment. This will be implemented early in the New Year but for now we are counting on Google. If you think of other features you would like to see on the site or find issues with existing functionality then let us know. Hope you find the new pages useful.
