[Harp-L] New archive

[George Brooks <gbrooks1@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wow.  Thanks, guys.  I can't even imagine how much work this took.  I 
want to raise a small point, though.  Our recently self-outed listowner

The Yahoo archive has one extremely valuable feature for those of us 
who actually read Harp-L on the Web (as opposed to using the archives 
to research older posts).  It's the "Expand Messages" feature, and it 
lets one read the posts as a long, scrollable list, about 30 posts to a 
page.  If I understand how the new archives work, you have to step 
through the posts one at a time by clicking on "Next By Date" or, if 
you want to be more selective, go back and forth between the messages 
of interest and the message index.  This is slow and cumbersome by 
comparison.

Could an Expand Messages feature be added to the new archive?  Might 
adding such a feature, if it is even possible to do so, be fun, 
actually?

I am glad to learn that fjm will be in St. Louis.  Me, too.  Let's 
party!
