Urth and Whorl mailing lists

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Considering the frequency of cross-list and hybrid discussions, I'm inclined
to favor a unified list, myself.

(sigh!) well, c'est la vie! Beats no messages at all. Would this require
HTML capabilities on the part of our mail programs?

yes, quite.
