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.

The archive for jsr-314-eg is here:
http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A0=JSR-314-EG
This covers July 2007 - May 2009.
The archive for jsr-314-open is here:
http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A0=JSR-314-OPEN
This covers March 2009 - June 2009.
Both of these require login to view.
This sadly leaves a gap, starting in June 2009, that isn't covered by any
available archive.
Dan's mission, before the expert group was disbanded, was to get all of
these archives, including the threads from the missing periods:
1. Online. And...
2. Accessible without login.
I still think that this is a very critical goal for JSF.
While I am grateful for the effort that JBoss has made in making the latest
archives available on
lists.jboss.org - and I have been taking full
advantage of the ability to share these publicly accessible links - this
looks like a stop-gap measure to me. It's been over a year since we first
reported the problems with our archives to the JCP. We need the JCP to
finally come through and provide a more formal solution.
