The other Brin-L still exists (although list traffic is low) and will remain
active. The Brin-L.com website will also remain up and running. The Alliance
for Progress Encyclopedia was added to it recently, further plans include
updating various pages and doing a bit of redesign. Plus of course the
overhaul of the A4P Encyclopedia.

Why should those archives be merged? They share the name "Brin-L" but other
than that they're separate mailing lists.

Ohmygawd, archives. That just brought back memories of my second-largest
project ever: The Great Brin-L Archive...

That will certainly happen in the near future. In fact, once inspiration and
sufficient nothing-better-to-do time will come to me I will even create a
new website about this List. A little over a year ago I once again became
the owner of the Brin-L.net domain name, but so far all it does is
autoforward to the Brin-L.com website and provide me with an e-mail address
to subscribe to this List (as you may have noticed from the headers). I
haven't yet figured out what else to do with it, so if anyone has any
suggestions, let me know!

Jeroen--

Hi, and welcome back.  It has been awhile.

One question:  What are your plans for the
other Brin-L, the one at
http://www.brin-l.com/frame.html ?

I'd suppose that the archives for the two lists
should eventually be merged somehow.  But in the
short term, how about putting up a link to
this list?

Honey, I'm home!

2010-01-04 Thread Jeroen van Baardwijk
Hi all!

 

It's been a while, but one of the most famous (or most notorious) list
members from Brin-L's past has come home.

 

I'm back.

 

Matt Lundstrom has forwarded me several messages about the Brin Wiki (or
whatever it will be called). It sounds like a helluva interesting project
(and a helluva lot of work!), I hope I will be able to contribute to it.

 

He also forwarded me a bunch of messages about my possible return; nice to
see that people still remember me after all those years. Then again, I seem
to make a lasting impression on almost anyone who meets me, both online and
in the Real World. As for the question of that impression being a good or a
bad one, well er. I won't go into that.   

 

So, did I miss anything while I was away?
