I don't know what you all decided to do with jsr-314-eg. I can't see
it with my login. If you said it was not originally open, and
therefore it's not appropriate to have an open archive, that's
certainly defensible.

But jsr-314-open should really be in an open archive. I have an mbox
file with all messages between 2009-04-03 and 2010-02-16. If that's
something that can be imported easily into the JBoss archive, that
would be great.

That would leave a couple of small gaps, and they could probably wait
until the JCP finally gets their act together.
