Dear ex-Syndicalists,
we are working on a reconstruction of the archive of the Syndicate
mailing list - you can see the current state of things here:
https://nettime.org/Lists-Archives/#syndicate
The fact that we have come so very far is thanks to the amazing work of
David Gauthier and Doma Smoljo in the last weeks, and of Zvonimir
Bakotin who helped with an important step in an earlier phase of this
endeavour. - A big toast to the three of them!
As far as we can tell at the moment, only the postings for the following
months in the year 2000 are still missing:
April, May, November, December 2000
(In case you were involved in this process before, these months appear
to be missing from the file syndicate_arch_complete/syndicate_arch.gz,
originating from zone.)
If somebody can help who has preserved the postings of the Syndicate
list for these months in 2000, please, get in touch.
Best regards,
-a
PS: The deadline that we gave each other was to get to this point before
