This category contains posts from CSGnet, the previous incarnation of this forum, which was hosted on a Sympa listserv at the University of Illinois. There are 29 subcategories, one for each year of CSGnet.
There are around 65,000 posts, beginning with the first email message to CSGnet sent by CSGnet administrator Gary Cziko on Monday 20 August 1990. The name of each topic is the text in the subject header of an email thread, and contains all the email with that text in its subject header. There are more than 15,000 email thread ‘topics’. However, unlike topics in Discourse, email threads often diverge from the topic stated in their subject header. Use the search function to find discussions that interest you. To narrow the search to a given year, open the subcategory for that year and then search.
This category is read-only, so you can’t add to the topics here. However, if you quote from a CSGnet post or link to it you re-introduce it to your current Discourse post, where you can continue the discussion if you wish.
