Hi Robert, sorry for starting a new thread at d...@suckless.org. Personally I give up the hope that the gmane problem will ever be fixed. I had long discussions during Jul-Sep and nothing really happened. The discussion wasn't distributed to this list, but here is the last mail I send (see below).
HTH, Anselm ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Anselm R Garbe <garb...@gmail.com> Date: 2009/9/12 Subject: Re: List merge of g.c.w-m.dwm and g.c.w-m.wmii To: Dmitry Maluka <dmitrymal...@gmail.com> Cc: Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen <la...@gnus.org>, Wolfgang Schnerring <wosc+gm...@wosc.de>, Anydot <dfe...@gmail.com>, "Anselm R. Garbe" <a...@suckless.org> Well can we do something? Nearly 3 months passed since we raised this issue and nothing happend. In summary: 1. Stop archiving g.c.w-m.dwm and g.c.w-m.wmii (+ fixing the links to original list archives, see below **) 2. Can we just set up archiving for dev@suckless.org (I can provide the whole list archive of just that, I did in the past twice as you will notice in this thread backlog) as g.c.misc.suckless please? ** the original list archive for g.c.w-m.dwm is http://lists.suckless.org/dwm/ and http://lists.suckless.org/dev, the original archive for g.c.w-m.wmii is http://lists.suckless.org/wmii/ and http://lists.suckless.org/dev/ Kind regards, Anselm 2009/8/20 Dmitry Maluka <dmitrymal...@gmail.com>: > Well, some people like reading old maillist archives via NNTP instead of > suckish web UI. > > On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 07:01:39PM +0100, Anselm R Garbe wrote: >> I don't mind if threading is broken unless threading of new messages >> isn't broken. >> >> It's much worse than the existing .wmii group is still the default for >> dev@suckless.org ;) >> >> Kind regards, >> Anselm >> >> 2009/8/20 Dmitry Maluka <dmitrymal...@gmail.com>: >> > Lars wrote that threading would be broken in the new group because of new >> > (random?) message-IDs.
