Today is the twenty-fifth anniversary of the launch of the ANE list. John Sanders and I pulled the idea together at the Oriental Institute, using borrowed equipment and software. You can still read the archive of the original configuration at:http://oi.uchicago.edu/research/library/ane/
It operated in the original form from 2 July 1993 - 16 February 2006.
Its current form ANE-2 began in anticipation of the closing of the original list on 15 February 2006, and is publicly archived at:http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ANE-2/
I wrote a little bit about it in 1999 at:http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue21/web-editor
It might be time for another reflection on the history of the list, but not today.
Happy birthday to ANE and its inhabitants!
