[MEI-L] Search

[Johannes Kepper]

From what I see, Google Groups still seems quite traditional. I looked up what TEI used as mirror, and particularly 

http://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Aedu.brown.listserv.tei-l

seems to be a great tool. But my understanding is that the current mailman instance in Paderborn stays the official mailing list, and all other sites are just mirrors of that (which means that all mails are send through the current mei-l). If we agree on that, there is no striking argument to provide only one such additional archive…
