If archives of the list currently exist, then I think they should
continue to be made available.

I still work on game design and technology, in the manner of a starving
artist with a non-computer day job.  Right now I'm focused on
technologies that may increase the productivity of the solo programmer.
In particular, high level languages, functional programming, and OCaml
specifically.  I was never a member of the "let's algorithmically
generate stories" camp, I don't basically believe in that paradigm.  I
think augmenting the efforts of a human author is the way to go, and
that successful IF inevitably has to be the product of an awful lot of
human authorship.
