[pianotech] ptg search archives

[Jim Moy]

Sure, I'll take a look.  I just created a login, "jbmfc" but don't see any
search hits on "band instrument repair," so I assume it's private or hidden
and that's why I need to be granted access?

It's been interesting, trying to find software that will do all these
things: integrate with the existing mailing lists without changing their
character; import the old archives and make them searchable; have a nice
forum interface; integrate into the PTG's hosting situation.

It is difficult to just make a clean break.  An online community does not
just "move."  And if we tear one down it is not likely it will build back
up.
