	Hi!

	Some time ago all *@xfree86.org maillists archives were available
at www.xfree86.org/pipermail/ .  Several months ago those had disappeared,
which made much harm: while various sites on the Internet have these
archives, the XFree86 site was THE archive, which could be linked to or
searched through with Google.  I personally always skimmed through Xpert
list via archive, since the list volume was too big to receive it by
e-mail.  The cvs-commit list archive also was of great value.

	Now I simply don't read any lists besides Fonts, which had 
definitely decreased my acquaintance with XFree86 and my ability to do
anything for the XFree86 project.  I'm sure many people share my feelings.

	Now when there IS /pipermail/forum/, maybe it will be possible to
restore other /pipermail/ archives?

	With best regards,
		Dmitry
