What about even older things?

That 'un is down for the moment, and the server will need to be updated
so it'll stay down for a while. The archives at brown are good, but
they aren't threaded and lacks the headers for that ever to happen...

I hope to collect the entire history of the list, every single message,
in replyable quality (that is: not missing the necessary headers.)

James's (mint :) ) archive is now up on anonymous ftp, at
ftp://shrdlu.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/ling/conlang-l/ (NB! new hostname!)

The formats differ a bit, I'll get around to making them the same format
-eventually- :)

As I've said before, I provide free, read-only ftp-access to all things
conlang, just ask.
