Обсуждение: Marc's initial request to start Postgres95 development
Does anyone have an archive of Marc's request to gather developers for Postgres95 development? It would in the May-June, 1996 time period. I had it for a long time, but accidentally deleted it. Isn't there tar file of all the Postgres95 mailing list messages somewhere? I can find it if I can get access to an archive. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

Could it be on one of the main archive sites?

It was before we moved it over to his site. The issue is that after we switched over to a new mailing list, I was going through the old postgres95 bug reports and finding any valuable patches. When I was done, I deleted the file, forgetting that the founding messages where in the same folder. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

My first of the group of questions wondered about Marc keeping archives of his own posts. I'm now guessing he doesn't. You (and I'm guessing many) people may think it strange but I keep archives of everything I've posted for the last 3-5 years (except for that hard drive incident I try to forget :) Vince. -- ========================================================================== Vince Vielhaber -- KA8CSH email: vev@michvhf.com flame-mail: /dev/null # include <std/disclaimers.h> Have you seenhttp://www.pop4.net?

I was wrong. Would be interesting to see at this point. The berkeley postgres95 site says to just see our site, so it seems they don't have it. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

Actually, I do too, except that mine appear to end around 2 years ago :(
I think that's about the time I got really into saving my messages...
