Is the cypherpunks list being automatically archived where it can be retrieved by anonymous FTP? Yes, there *are* occasional nuggets on this list. Why, there's even the occasional practical item about cryptography buried in the massive rants to the libertarian choir. But I'd hate to miss stuff like the recent note on RC4. That's why I haven't unsubscribed yet. But something has to give. The list is just too high-volume, and the signal-to-noise ratio is now below -1.6 dB. It's just not worth it. It's a major reason why I always seem to run as much as a week behind on my mail. If there were an automatic FTP archive of the list, then I could unsubscribe while keeping the option of pulling over and grepping through an archived batch every so often just to see if anybody is actually doing anything.
