No.. the mailing list STARTED out as a BBS, but that went the way of 
the dodo.  Traffic on the BBS was nil, while the mailinglist traffic 
went through the roof.

In the near future, the archives of the mailing list should be 
available on the web in a searchable format.  Right now I'm just 
waiting for the web access to be setup (Piers???).
