Perhaps if you noted this on your archive page, the casual observer would be
better informed. 

I just tried to recreate the path I took to get to your web page and I was
not able to do so in 5 minutes. I'm not sure if I went their based on a link
posted on the users list or not. Whatever the path, I missed the GreatCircle
archives and believed that the ones I found were the only one available.
They stopped in 1998. I had no reason to believe that there was any
additional information available - that's all.

My mistake. I'm a boob.

My frustration with this project is that, unless you are tapped in to this
mailing list, it can be difficult to tell that anything is actually going
on. 

I know that all of you are working very had to make this project successful,
don't get me wrong. My note was not intended as a criticism.

I will make an attempt to engage in the development process. I'll get the
software installed here and we'll start working with it if the belief is
that we are close to a release. I cannot commit company resources to working
on something that is fundamentally changing, however if the basics are solid
and the general architecture is solid, we'll play.
