I don't know that the Naggum archive is complete, but I am reasonably
sure that its time span is correct.  I began reading C.L.L in the
early 90s.  My first memory of Erik was mid/late 90s, and he stopped
posting a couple of years before he passed in 2009. 

Erik really didn't post a whole lot (compared to some others). More
typically he would make a few long posts, and then you'd hear nothing
more from him until some new topic caught his attention.


These are some more extensive C.L.L archives that can provide context
for Erik's posts.  Again, I can't vouch for completeness.

1986 - 2017   (mbox format files)

2003 - 2020   (mbox format file)

1986 - 2022   (web UI - no apparent way to search)
https://usenetarchives.com/threads.php?id=comp.lang.lisp


note: C.L.L began in 1986. IMHO there hasn't been much substantive
discussion in recent years, so the mbox files cover the vast majority
of everything you'd want to read anyway.

YMMV.
