[SWCollect] Mailing list work

[Jim Leonard]

Just a quick note that the swcollect mailing list software is still a 
bit broken -- currently there is no way to subscribe or unsubscribe.  I 
am still working on the problem and plan to have it fixed this weekend.

Along those lines, I have the ability to create a threaded index of the 
list archives, maybe even have it searchable.  For doing the most good 
and being the most useful, I was planning on having this searchable 
threaded archive be available to the public and search engines.  What I 
would like to hear are any arguments against that so that I don't anger 
anyone on the list.  For example:  email addresses public/not public, 
mean words about a buyer/seller, etc.  *WITH* these arguments I would 
like a proposed solution.

Keep in mind that a public searchable threaded archive of the list is 
*already available* here: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ but it only goes 
back four months.

(The motivation behind this is part of my Master Plan(tm) for 
softwarecollecting.org, which is to become a big helpful source of 
software collecting for people new to the hobby:  a FAQ, an illustrated 
list of MobyScale grades, photos of various shrinkwraps and how to tell 
which is real/fake, etc.)
