Recently I received a message from Yahoo management stating that they were going to soon delete their Yahoo Groups archives, so I should download the archive ASAP.  I downloaded it yesterday.  Now I have to figure out what to do with it.  If I live long enough, and have enough energy to do it, then I plan to edit it, and post the relevant portions of the archive here for research by future contemplatives.

Hello Jeff,

I pay yearly for a 100 GB Google Drive storage, which I could clear out to host some of these files. Google storage also allows the files to be downloaded or viewed publicly if you enable it. I would encourage you to compile what you can, and we put them on the cloud. Then even a simple wordpress page with a link could preserve the discussion boards. A final idea, better, may be editing / annotating a compilation for publication (finding a publisher for a mystically oriented book will be the challenge, however :)).

Thanks, Alexander, for the offers.  Sounds good.  I think the GWV website has enough storage room, but I will have to evaluate it.

Curious to know, where will you put the archive?

Good question, Intuition.  I have not even looked at it.  I suppose it will become a downloadable.  I am open to suggestions.

I think that would work well. I'm also working on getting the entire GWV vehicle downloaded for an archive
