"Every submission sent to this list is archived. Eventually, this
archive will be accessible via HTTP." (From this list's
subscription confirmation.)
I was led to this list by its archives, which I found on the Web. They
(and those of www-talk) are the best HTML presentation I have seen of
archived messages to a mailing list. There seems to be no better way of
opening up the contents of a list than the display of a threaded order,
although 3 other sorts are available. The credit appears to be due to
Hypermail.
Hence my question. Should the 2nd quoted sentence not read, "This
archive
<html>
<i>is</i>
</html>
accessible via HTTP"? Or is something even grander in the
making?
