Current archives are not all that bad.. just *slow*. To that end, I have something in the works to help with the cleanup of these and posting/emailing the best of to BTDT. Its more lack of time to work on the project at the moment that is slowing things. Implementation details are still in my head at the moment, need some actual data and experimentation to play around with it. Some hints.. it involves google technology, so the searching/indexing will be fast, the key though is nothing is automatic, and wading through the chaff to find the wheat takes time. The only way it will happen is to divide up the effort and organize it. This is what I'm working on at the moment. Each listee that wants to help takes a 'years' worth of posts (or half year) and wades through it using BTDT keywords. Still hashing out the details.. will post when I have an update cheers -tim
