Ok I uploaded the archive module to CVS.

And I have it running on my new Drupal 4.6 site.
It seems to be working pretty well at the moment, and seeing as it is not a very complex module even the largest problem with it will not take too long to fix. :) So please download it and give it a try.
Although I like this module a lot, if it is going to be in contrib, it has to behave like a contrib module. That is, it should not patch drupal.css, but use its own css file inside the module's directory. And, it should not have a name that conflicts with a core module. This will cause a bunch of problems and support issues as (non- developer) users stumble across it and try it. If you want to leave it as is (patching core and conflicting with a core module), it should stay in your sandbox. I suggest making it a true contrib module by changing the name of the cvs directory/module and accessing the css from the module's directory. This way people can use it until it -- hopefully -- makes it into core, replacing archive. - Jim
