[Coco] forum/list archive threads

Great News

I just added a presorting routine to my Archive Converter app that 
sorts a database of messages based on their subject lines, where 
"Re:" denotes a Reply.  So far this is working good with the 
Princeton.edu messages.  I just imported January 1998 which was 
originally 431 separate posts, and is now 189 posts with their threads.

To see how this looks, click on 'Princeton' in the left sidebar of 
the site.  Hardly any "Re:" subjects at all.  :)  They were linked to 
their parent and posts as Comments.  Check it out.

For the Princeton CoCo mailing list, I have a 12 months per year from 
1998 to 2004 to go.  This means downloading all sub files per month, 
merging them, running them through my WordPress XML maker, then 
reading them into the site using the admin panel.

P.S. the Archive converter is written in VB.NET and currently works 
with Delphi digests, Maltedmedia and Princeton mailing list digests
