You get to the list archive on onelist like this:

                a. enter username and password
                b. click "log in"
                c. click on "cricket-users", near the bottom.
                d. click on View Archives

I am not very happy with their archive format. If someone else would
like to make a hypermail (etc...) archive of this list, I'd be
grateful. I am not willing to take the time to deal with it, when
OneList at least sort of has an archive.

You should not get an error. So no response is good. In the document
rewrite that I hope to do sometime this summer, I'll explain all this
a bit more clearly.

collector takes a -base argument, just like compile. (Ok, ok, I know,
if there were manpages, you'd know that without me having to tell
you.) When you are running it interactively in your non-standard
install, you will always need to use the -base option.

Also, make sure you edit subtree-sets to tell collect-subtrees where the config
tree root is. That way, it will know what to pass to the collector for
the -base argument.

You are close... keep pushing, and it'll start working soon, I promise!
