The page presenting the mailing lists does not give any indication of where the archives are. This is badly missing.
This is very true.
marking as invalid since this is no longer applicable.
whoops -- got a bit carried away and submitted comments (twice!) on the wrong bug... we currently do not offer mailing list archives, though we plan to do so in the future. Until then, users can use gmane and/or marc.theaimsgroup.com for unofficial archives.
