The source for lists.apache.org belongs to the vendor and I believe that the PonyMail Podling’s source is a fork which differs and lacks proprietary parts.

A question could be for Sebb and if he finds the Pony Mail project helpful. > BTW, we have some repo that are part of our infrastructure, they don't > do ASF "release" IIUC but also not "retire" or archive. Sure we have infrastructure and now tooling archives. These also get archived if they are no longer relevant.
