Hi c.l.a readers,
Do downloadable archives of c.l.a. exist somewhere (preferably in
mbox, but at least in a format which allows to reconstruct the
original posting)?

I've always used Google Groups as an archive. I'm not aware of any other
archive.

That would be a pity. Google doesn't provide any useful way to donload
complete threads (and strore them as mbox) and that's exactly what I'm
in the habit of doing when documenting problems and solutions.

Hi,
maybe there is something I didn't consider, but for what I know you
should just:
- download an offline newsreader (example: 40tude Dialog for
Windows)
- subscrive to this newsgroup via a newsserver
- download all the posts and let the newsreader reoder them
some newsreaders also allow you to export the articles in a text-news
format.
Regards,
gmaggior

Mine does. I'm usually archiving all of the news while I read it. This
is not the problem. The problem are interesting threads on Ada
programming, Gnat, whatever which fall into times in which I haven't
read c.l.a regularly (like the end of the 90s) and which are annoying
to retrieve article by article from Google (apart from the fact that
Googles "original format" option often isn't orginal enough).
