I have a copy of the HIWG CD which has copies of the TML archives from the
beginning to 1995 or so. I'm pretty sure there are at least two members of the
this list that have complete archives of not only the TML but several other
traveller lists.

	The full archives used to be up on the web in a couple of locations, but they
have faded from the active web, and may only be available in the wayback machine.

	I've thought about putting the archives I have up in the Traveller Wiki. This
would give it a newer permanent home as part of the history of Traveller. But,
like so many of the projects I have regarding the wiki it's not gotten beyond
the on-the-list phase.
