Thanks. This looks like it's working.

	You may well be working on this, but if not it would be useful:
		(a) to have a top-level archive page from which all these monthly
archives can be reached
		(b) to have links from each month to this page
		(c) to link to this top page from http://www.xml.org/xml-dev/

[I think the Imp Coll system provided the first two as part of the
hypermail/mhonarc system. Of course we never had the third.]

	P.
