Yes, I do save a number of the messages from this maillist. But not in
an archive form. I consider an archive to be saving all messages in a
chronological order.
My files started out very much as Allison describes, as a selective
collection of those messages I wanted to keep for my future benefit.
That was seven years ago. Since then I have expanded the collection
to messages a bit beyond my immediate interest. And I now gather
information from the Rialto (rec.org.sca), this SCA-Cooks maillist,
the Ansteorra and the Bryn Gwlad maillists, other mail lists such as
the SCA-Arts mail list which I just added and other sources including
articles emailed to me by the authors. But I do not keep all
messages. For some groups, such as the Rialto, I may only keep 5-10
percent of all the messages. For some groups such as this one,
probably slightly higher.
These are collated by subject area into files. So I do not keep
messages from this mail list seperate from others. But if you have
a particular interest, say in cheese, or how to make mead, or ideas
for non-alcoholic beverages or period eyeglasses etc it might be
worth checking out.
