It won't be, just as it isn't the only means of accessing current information. Apparently written by David Damouth, damouth@wrc.xerox.com: >...

There is nothing whatsoever flaky about many major archives. For instance, the biology research community has established many very important Internet archives, which we all expect to be permanent. They are extremely important, and represent an enormous amount of labor, which we have no intention of wasting. Certainly, it is not a waste of time to build on these. -- Una Smith smith-una@yale.edu Department of Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8104 USA
