[governance] IGF MAG 2018: NO NEWS

[Ang Peng Hwa (Prof)]

Hi.

> high time we consider duplicating the archive automatically incase if future errors.
I was doing some work about archiving and have since learnt that there are companies offering “dark archives” service. These are archives of archives. Here we are talking about serious archives—in the case, the National Archives of Singapore. Publishers apparently use the service too. The dark archive companies ensure that the files are not corrupted and always machine readable.

Ours will be small in scale but I can find out more information if the executive committee wishes.

Happy New Year

As we journey in this reconstruction of archive, may be is high time we consider duplicating the archive automatically incase if future errors.

Just thinking.

So it's by error.  I think it's understood that the archive is really lost.

So, let's approve the reconstruction proposal, so that Tapani et al. can get to work. The sooner the better.

No that's not the issue.  We have access to the server, but the archives
were deleted from the server at some time within the last few months, by
one of the volunteers who was trying to get the mailing list working again.

As to why he didn't tell anyone, he may not have realized what he had done.
