Note: I keep calling this the List Syndication Service, but it's actually the List *Summary* Service :) Syndicated summaries....
Just a note that I posted summaries of October's Foundation-L archives, in two parts: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LSS/foundation-l-archives And did the last two weeks of wikien-L, while I was at it. Wiki-en was harder, since discussions are a bit more diffuse, people don't seem to change their subjects when the topic changes as often, and I haven't been following it myself as closely. Let me know what you think, though. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LSS/wikiEN-l-archives/2008_11_01-15 This is probably as far back in the archives as I'll go, but I'll try to keep up with it in future. -- Phoebe On Sun, Nov 16, 2008 at 12:14 AM, phoebe ayers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi ya'll, > > You may remember way that back in mid-2006 user:Improv started up the > List Syndication Service: > http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LSS > > This was an ongoing weekly summary of the mailing lists, particularly > Foundation-L.
