The "official" new archive for PEIRCE-L is now functional, though I have not yet managed to import the old messages from the lyris listserver. But it is now working nonetheless, and it can be accessed in several different ways, but to avoid needless confusion I will refer to one of these as the "official archive", which is also called "The Gmane Archive", and is to be found at the following URL: :
http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.philosophy.peirce The second access to that material is at the address I provided in the previous message on the topic several days ago, which I will refer to as "The Mail Archive" (because that is actually its name). Think of it as a backup for the official archive, which is The Gmane Archive. The URL for it is: http://www.mail-archive.com/peirce-l%40lyris.ttu.edu/ If you go to both you will find that The Mail Archive, the back up archive, actually has a number of messages in it that are not (yet) in The Gmane Archive. That is because I accidentally got it setup first, not knowing what I was doing. But they will both be filled soon with what must be many hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of old messages imported from the lyris listserver, which has been archiving all along but is so awkward to use that it might as well not exist. There is more to be said about this, but I don't want to induce confusion by doing so in the present message. I will wait until a better time to get into further detail on it. Hopefully, this is the sort of confusion that attends progress..

The URL for the web-based version of the one that is now working is: http://www.mail-archive.com/peirce-l%40lyris.ttu.edu/ You might want to check it out but I should add that this is NOT the main one but a second one provided for purposes of redundancy, I guess. It is called "The Mail Archive". The main one is called "The Gmane Archive"" and is not yet functional for some reason, though it is supposed to be. I'll give you a URL for it as soon as it gets functional. It will be available both as a website and as a newsgroup that you can feed into your mail program so that it shows up as a folder there. As soon as it is working right I will make an arrangement for importing into both of them everything in the lyris listserver that is presently available in that all but unusable archive there.
