Actually there's quite a bit more than that. see <ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/mirror/python/search/hypermail/>. I have grabbed that entire directory and it is now visible at <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/old_stuff/>. Because of the way that <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/) is updated, the link to 'old_stuff' can't be added to that page in a way that will persist as new messages are archived, but at least they are there until someone comes up with a better place.
Thanks!
Also note that comp.lang.python and hence python-list from late March 1994 onward is archived at <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/comp.lang.python>
That's good, because the 1994Q4 link on the archive you downloaded points to http://grail.cnri.reston.va.us/cgi-bin/mlaform/mla/94q4/, which doesn't exist any more. As introduction explains, I have kept (almost) all messages posted to the Python mailing list and newsgroup while I lived in Amsterdam -- until mid April 1995. These are accessible as hypertext, converted by Kevin Huges' excellent hypermail program. (Except the last quarter of 1994, which was -- as an experiment -- maintained by Sam Leffler's MLA tools.)
