[spectre] Reconstruction of the Syndicate list archive / missing months in 2000 / Scars conf

[Andreas Broeckmann]

Dear ex-Syndicalists,

we are working on a reconstruction of the archive of the Syndicate 
mailing list - you can see the current state of things here:

https://nettime.org/Lists-Archives/#syndicate

The fact that we have come so very far is thanks to the amazing work of 
David Gauthier and Doma Smoljo in the last weeks, and of Zvonimir 
Bakotin who helped with an important step in an earlier phase of this 
endeavour. - A big toast to the three of them!

As far as we can tell at the moment, only the postings for the following 
months in the year 2000 are still missing:

April, May, November, December 2000

(In case you were involved in this process before, these months appear 
to be missing from the file syndicate_arch_complete/syndicate_arch.gz, 
originating from zone.)

If somebody can help who has preserved the postings of the Syndicate 
list for these months in 2000, please, get in touch.

Best regards,

-a


PS: The deadline that we gave each other was to get to this point before 
a conference that will happen next week:
