I've mentioned my work on this project before in this forum, and I thought this would be of interest to the subscribers of the list. Many thanks to the individuals who participating in the testing and to Norm Aleks for some very useful advice. Take care, David _Annoucing_the Release_of_the_Mailing_List_WWW_Gateway_ The Mailing List WWW Gateway (LWGate) is a CGI script, written in Perl, which is intended to: * Present information about mailing lists to WWW users * Assist users in executing mailing list commands though a user- friendly forms-based interface * Automatically generate a hypertext interface, on the fly, to list archives available on the local server With the LWGate, people browsing the WWW can read a description of a mailing list, subscribe to a list, easily search a list's message archives, browse the archives in a hypertext format, search for other mailing lists, and much more. The LWGate supports mailing lists provided by LISTSERV(TM), ListProcessor 6, and Majordomo servers. The LWGate is freely available under the GNU General Public Licence. It can be installed on HTTP servers which support CGI scripts. See below for directions on obtaining your own copy, but note that the NetSpace LWGate will accept additions to its database. * To see a functioning LWGate, go to the NetSpace LWGate: <URL:http://www.netspace.org/cgi-bin/lwgate> * To see an example of the LWGate's hypertext archive capability, visit the Big-Linux archives: <URL:http://www.netspace.org/cgi-bin/lwgate/big-linux/archives/> * To install the LWGate on your own server, visit the LWGate WWW page. *Upgrades and bug-fixes will be announced here:* <URL:http://www.netspace.org/users/dwb/lwgate.html> * If you don't want to install the LWGate on your server, but would like your list to be able to use it, request to be added to the NetSpace LWGate: <URL:http://www.netspace.org/cgi-bin/lwgate/request-add.html> David W.
