history of MLton

[Stephen Weeks]

Happy New Year everyone!  MLton is seeing his 6th year (OK, he's only
four and half, but that's the way it works out).  I thought it would
be fun to look back at some of the old emails from the past 5 years.
Here are the earliest internal and external emails for each of the
past 5 years, from the earliest day of the year for which I could find
a message.
