Hi Everyone

I am slowly writing my first Ada app but spending most of my time studying. I still have two more books to go(Cohen + Barnes) but after that I plan on reading the past ten years worth of mailing list posts.

I have created several massive PDFs, each a years worth of posts to the list. Please see them here:

http://www.spellingbeewinnars.org/ada/

Some are over 10K pages but most of this is wasted space. I converted them from html to PDF so each page is rather sparce.

A more sensible use of these might also be to search for previous posts offline, for instance using pdfgrep.

Please feel free to download them but please download one at a time as my work website is also on the same economy hosting plan and I don't want any trouble.

Hope this is useful to someone-Patrick
