I post to the list because I perhaps raise questions that other people
on the list can answer...

I think all mail sent to the DJGPP list is collected somewhere, yes,
but I don't know where exactly ;-)   I'm sure DJ knows this one.

I thought Steve Turnbull is working on a extended DJGPP FAQ list.
Ask him for the current status. He is a regular poster ;-)

This is one of the UseNet groups. Ask your system administrator 
how to "read news" from UseNet groups. I use a program 'rn' (Unix).
Currently there is *no* UseNet group devoted solely to DJGPP
although some discussion on it took place some months ago here.

Yes, I keep part of the posted messages too.
Beware that some information becomes outdated when new releases
see the light...
