Vulcan-L archive

There is an archive of Vulcan-L traffic available 
at
      ftp.shikahrsoho.com 	     

in the directory tree rooted at /pub/vulcan-l

To avoid having the archive copied by indexing bots, and spam
email address harvesters, the archive is _not_ available by 
anonymous FTP. Access is thru a userid with the accompanying login.
At present (30 June 2002), the userid is "list". The word to
get in, is "archive". This will be changed at a later date.
The changes will be announced in advance.

Vulcan-Linguistics archive

The archive of the Vulcan-Linguistics list is not presently
available, but should be "soon" (Whether "soon" is measured in
quantum or geologic timescales has yet to be determined)

These archives are not searchable. They are simply zip-compressed
files containing traffic from each list.

=================================================================
World Wide Web

Selek has a dictionary compilation at http://www.starbase-10.de/vld/
and a new site with information about Amabassador Soval at
http://members.shaw.ca/soval/index.html

This is a new site, added to this list 16 Nov 2002.

http://www.angelfire.com/space/vulcan/index.html  (Seheik's site)

The following list of web sites was compiled by Ann Vogelaar, and
posted to vulcan-l in article 8557. This list of web sites is 
included here with Ann's permission, and my deepest thanks at the
effort that has gone into compiling this list.

This list of sites has been checked as of 9 June 2001 to see that
the site is accessible. That check though doesn't include the the
web site still has Vulcan related content. Updates are welcome.
