For a programming competition (http://railsday.com) I recently entered, I created a web-application to nicely display mail archives. I've loaded up a couple of months worth of r-devel mail and made it available here: http://listomagic.had.co.nz/ The big advantages over the currrent mailman archive are: * messages are threaded, and messages in a thread are displayed together, and some effort is made to reduce redundant quoting * built in search * rss feeds for author, thread and search I'd very interested to know if you think this useful and if it'd be worthwhile to keep in sync with the list. Any comments regarding appearance, functionality etc would also be gratefully recieved. Thanks, Hadley

I only wish the Bioconductor E-mail somehow got on the gmane "newgroups" too. efg
