RE: Message Archives

["Chuck Creesy" Chuck_Creesy@xxxxxxxx]

I have an archive of a little over 10,000 XyWrite-list messages going
back to early 2005 on a hard drive, in pst format, and more going back
to 2000 and maybe further on CDs, should they ever be needed. --Chuck

Flash started it on Sept. 27, here:

http://www.freelists.org/post/xywrite/Death-of-the-English-Language

The archives, which are searchable, of the XyWrite list since it moved
to freelists.org (in June 2009) are located here:

http://www.freelists.org/archive/xywrite

The archives of the list when it was hosted at UPenn-CCAT are no longer
available (because the list server there is defunct). However, a
comprehensive, searchable XyWrite message base, including the current
archive, the UPenn archive and messages from earlier iterations of the
XyWrite list are usually available at XySearch:

http://www.holmgren.org/Xy/Search

That facility is temporarily down, probably because Robert is away. I
expect it'll be functional again in due course.
