Does anyone know if there is an easier (quicker) way to browse the posts in the Archive? There are 211 pages, so it’s a bit tedious to navigate. Is it possible to download all the posts in a single text file?

I recommend against downloading the archive for the following reason: The originator of this forum complained when the then-existent archive was downloaded because it overwhelmed the university server that the forum used. I believe he cited that as one reason he decided to discontinue the forum.

If you log in, there’s the option to download a text file of the forum messages. The link is on the green rail to the left. I don’t know if it’s up to date, though.

Unfortunately that text file doesn’t include the messages of the Archive (1999-2006): http://www.outlinersoftware.com/archives

I think I have the file you are looking for in OPML and TXT format. If you wish write to my private address: subscriber at data dot pl and I can send one or both to you.
