What will happen to the old archives?<br>

<br>
Unfortunately, it seems that they are gone forever. When the IGC's last<br>
hosting company went bankrupt and left us without access to the server<br>
except via the web, I went and downloaded all of the mail archives and<br>
transferred them to the new virtual server. But then when I regained<br>
access to the new machine recently when I was trying to get the mailing<br>
list working again, the archives had been deleted in the meantime. I<br>
don't know how or by whom. But unless a backup was taken at our hosting<br>
provider Digital Ocean (and I can't check this, because I don't have the login), this means the archives are lost for good<br>

If there was ever an example of the cobbler's children having the worst shoes, this must be one of the best.<br>

I'm fairly sure I've got the list archived going back about ten years; it'd be in Berkeley format, if anyone wants to contact me.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
