A commendable idea, although you would have to update this on a regular
basis as the list of weekly archive file would keep growing/changing.


The other problem I have is that I don't use that extra gmail account for
anything else and I forget to drop in every few months when
Gerry  'auto unsubscribes me'

So, I have by no means a complete archive.

There is a google gmail api. (I think?) You might be able to
script this up such that one could issue a  'catch up archive' command.


My initial interest in this was to go back over individ posts and
feed the BTDT site that John Meeks has set up.  That process is
somewhat time intensive but it's worth it to get the
Best of the best so to speak of the archives.

Again, as anyone does this, take a moment or two to help feed the btdt site.
