For a couple of weeks, I had not been able to connect to gmane, so I finally gave up and changed my preferences so that I could receive the email from the list. I have not seen any acknowledgement anywhere that it was down BTW - did anybody here notice? Or was it just me?
I don't know when it came back but I just noticed today that it *is* back and I can resume using nntp for reading this list and hat is a very good thing! After two years, I have given up hope that gmane search will ever come back, and the nntp feed going way just seemed like the final nail on the gmane coffin. So I'm modestly encouraged that nntp is back: I won't go as far as saying that there might be a flicker of hope for search to come back, but who knows? Anyway, thanks to the people who brought it back! -- Nick "There are only two hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors." -Martin Fowler
