Dear ConTeXters, I am still looking for the first emails of this list. The archive on http://archive.contextgarden.net is missing the first half year. If there is anybody out there (Tobias? Slavek?) who has them, please email me off list. Your help is *greatly* appreciated. Patrick (I can't sleep well without having all mails :-)

Not anymore! Something to celebrate: the archive looks complete now - thanks Hans! (not that it is of any practical use - it just feels good :-)) BTW: the first message is dated 1997-08-22 19:06 +200 and it is about footnotes/endnotes Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Actually, digging into the archives has been pretty handy. Any chance of
getting an mbox of the archive that I can import into my MUA? Mailman
only has from ~2002.

I'm finding it very entertaining and somewhat informative. There are some interesting gems in there:
Personally I think users should not be bothered with font encodings at all. There is no harm in forcing things that (at least) we thing are best. (HH)
I sure wish it could be true, but today it seems as difficult as ever! -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

It may help if we make some choices and stick to the encodings that make most sense: texnansi, qx, t5, uc, (+the new one adam and i are discussing), a main greek and a main cyrillic one.
