Subject: Change to mailing list archives

The mailing list archives located at:

	http://playground.sun.com/pub/nfsv4/nfsv4-wg-archive

were becoming a bit unwieldy with over 2,000 messages over 5 years.
Last week I had to grab a new version of Hypermail when the old
one crashed at 2,000 messages.

I've reorganized the archives as follows:

	o The URL (above) now takes you to an index page
	  from which you can select the archive year.

	o You can select Hypermail archives (as before)

	o You can select flat text archives for any
	  particular year (for those who don't want
	  Hypermail).

	o You can select a large flat file (now 7MB) that
	  contains all of the mail for the last 5 years.

You should now be able to look at the most recent messages
more quickly - since you don't have to download message
headers from the last 4 years.

Sorry, but URLs that select individual messages within the
old archive will no longer be valid.

Let me know if you have any problems/suggestions.

	Thanks
