There seems to be a SEIV Archieve 1 opened in the forum main page. (At the very bottom.) Are the older topics going to be put there? Maybe it is good time to do that because this forum is nearing 40000 Posts.
I'll need to reindex the forum onc eit's done, but yes you will be able to do that. I probably won't get this done until the holidays anyway when I have some free time.
