[governance] download archive files

[willi uebelherr]

Dear friends,

i subscribed to this list at the end of january. Because i use the 
Thunderbird mail client, it is easy for me to search the mails offline. 
But for that i need the compressed archive files. Maybe for 1 year.

The most lists use the mailman list server. Then we can directly 
download the monthly automatic generated archives in the mbox format. 
With Sympa i have no experience. My search for archive files was not 
successful.

That's why I have written an inquiry to the admin group. You can read 
this and the answer from Deirdre and Analia. This openness i like it 
very much. Now there are two questions:

1) Is that okay for you, that i download the archive files for the last 
year?

2) If no one speak against it, how i/we can do it? Does anyone have 
experience with archive files in Sympa?

I know from the user manual of Sympa, that they use a special format 
internal. And there exist some tools to convert this format to the mbox 
format. It is a very old pure ascii format.

The same i want to ask the people on bestbit. I will wait for your 
answers. NetMundial 1net.org use the mailman list server.

many greetings, willi

Dear Willi,
The archives are publicly available for consultation.
Because of the nature of aggregated data, it is generally considered 
good etiquette to make a public request to the list if you wish to 
download them. Downloading them is a rather more complex issue 
technically, for which, anyway, we will need to request some "outside" 
help. Can you deal with the request while we ask for the technical help?
Best wishes
Deirdre and Analia
