Hi,
There seem to be several archives of this list:
http://lalists.stanford.edu/lad/
The "original" LAD list until 2002 server. Since then, they keep
backup-copies of all list emails; subscription there is no longer possible.
@Nando: on http://lalists.stanford.edu/ "website" links should point to
http://lists.linuxaudio.org
as linked to and searchable from
http://lad.linuxaudio.org/archive/lad.html
lad.linuxaudio.org is horribly out of date. It's only 14 static html
pages and worthwhile content from there should be moved to the wiki.
Alike apps & wiki, lad.linuxaudio.org will become an entry point to the
wiki and the current lad-vhost will go off-line.
Only http://lad.linuxaudio.org/events/ - which hosts the LAC video
archive - will remain (as redirect to lac.linuxaudio.org).
and
http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-dev/
as linked to from
http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev/
http://lists.linuxaudio.org/ is the main resource, we should always link
there.
Additionally, there's search functionality at
http://www.linuxaudio.org/search/swishmail/
.. and another, not very convenient archive at
http://www.linuxaudio.org/mailarchive/lad
The drupal-module at www.linuxaudio.org is a wrapper around
lists.linuxaudio.org. It provides RSS and ATOM feeds and the swishmail
search is kind of handy. The /mailarchive/ just comes with it. There's
a gazillion others fi. gmane.org, mail-archive.com, marc.info, etc. etc.
This is a bit confusing. Perhaps we should replace the
references to the
archive hosted at stanford with references to
http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-dev and
http://www.linuxaudio.org/search/swishmail
http://www.linuxaudio.org/mailarchive/lad is kindof neat, so I wouldn't want
to propose doing away with it, but in its current form it's not too useful
either: a 'thread view' of a whole month instead of only a single day would
make it much better. What software is backing this? Perhaps we could
upgrade/improve it.
It's the mailarchive drupal module - same as on kerneltrap.org. lkml has
much more traffic, which justified the hardcoded daily-thread-view for
that module. I do not know if mailarchive version 6.x fixes this
shortcoming. We're still running a rather old version of this module.
Upgrading/Improving this is quite a bit of work.
