 |Steffen,

 |Are you looking for the Unicode list email archives?

 |https://www.unicode.org/mail-arch/
 |
 |Those contain list content going back all the way to 1994.

Dear Ken Whistler, no, and yes, having an archive is very good,
though your statement from 1997-07-16 ("Plan 9 (a Unix OS) uses
UTF-8") i cannot agree with (it feels very different from Unix).

It was just that i have read on one of the mailing-lists i am
subscribed to a cite of a Unicode statement that i have never read
of anything on the Unicode mailing-list.  It is very awkward, but
i _again_ cannot find what attracted my attention, even with the
help of a search machine.  I think "faith alone will reveal the
true name of shuruq" (1997-07-18).
