No coding was actually done, it was all ML threads.

No, there's not a complete, working mail archive ATM.
The new mailing list setup at gnumatic.com works, but it
doesn't contain the old archives (pre-mid-June = old),
and isn't linked to from the main page. The old links at gnucash.org
still work for me up until June 2000, but searching doesn't work.
Once the other developers get back on deck, I'm sure they'll sort it out.
