The only archives are the list archives, https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-reports/

There's a larger plan forming to scrap the current blog and convert it
to something like jekyll/hakyll with the content served from git. We'd
like to do this for the entire website, too. The step holding up the
blog migration is the ability to accept comments. Some of our bloggers
really enjoy the comments. We don't really want to sign up with some
Internet-wide commenting system like disqus or intensedebase due to
privacy concerns over data collection. Until we have a some sort of a
forum, we're holding off on the blog migration.

Plan B could be to simply create an RSS to git repo script for the blog
content and serve it up for posterity via git.
