I am happy to announce a new home for the KDE mailing list archives at:

http://www.progressive-comp.com/KDE-Lists/

This site is part of an ongoing spare-time project I've been working on
for a while now.  The new archives are database driven, featuring a
(hopefully) more usable interface than the old MHonArc-generated pages
to browse through the lists, browse through threads, etc, and full-text-
index searching on each list.

With the help of Stephan Kulow, who maintains the current mailing list
archive site ( http://www.itm.mu-luebeck.de/~coolo/kde ), I have loaded
into the DB all of the archives he had on the current site, and am
getting feed for all (?) of the KDE mailing lists.  [If anyone out there
has mails I don't, please contact me.]

I have asked Stephan to continue to maintain his archives for a little
while while the new system gets a shakedown (and we make sure that
access to PCC -- located in Florida, USA -- is reasonable for all you
non-North-Americans).  He will keep his around for a while, and then
kill them (or drop all but the newest messages) at some point in the
future.

I am the first to admit that I am a lazy and sloppy programmer, and that
I have no taste whatsoever.  Please feel free to bombard me with bug
reports and/or look-n-feel requests.  I might even listen ;)

Actually, the project really is still an evolving thing, and I enjoy
working on it for some crackpot reason.  If you are interested in
knowing more about our mailing list archive project, read

Special thanks to the folks at Progressive Computer Concepts, Inc for
donating/loaning indefinitely the server space, horsepower, and
bandwidth for this site, even though I haven't worked for PCC in months.
