Excellent.

But the sister files aren't available:
http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-ot.tgz (404)
http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-ot.zip (404)

http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-dev.tgz (404)
http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-dev.zip (404)

http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-announce.tgz (404)
http://iem.at/mailinglists/pd-announce.zip (404)

I think this is why newsgroups are better - incremental
update, centralized, universally accessible, history maintained,
locally searchable.
