Lunatic idea

I suppose that, if we just all go through our old sent-mail folders and
forward everything that was to reprap@bath.ac.uk to the new forum
making sure to keep the subject field as it was, it'll just make an
unholy mess? Or might it sort it all out?

I suppose it would work. No objections. We'd want to edit out the world
domination threads.

I'd say we test the idea using the emails from the
"An alternative to timing belts?"
thread.

Also, let's not start with the main deluge until everyone's ready for it; it
may be that one or two of us will want forwarning before receiving
3.5kiloemails.

All good points. Let's wait to see what Simon says.

there are a year or two of emails at least... i say we remove all the
private ones and then somehow try to merge the two indices. somehow i
think that might be a pain. we could probably at least make the old
one public or something.

I can directly gateway them in from this end without causing such a
drama of resending everything to everybody. I may even be able to
preserve the date/times that way.

But as you say, we should remove anything that should remain private first.

nice. the old developers list was a virtual treasure trove of
information regarding reprap and fabricator machines in general. it
would be a shame to deny that to the rest of the world =)
