Interesting! I had seen less detailed versions of that story elsewhere, but never saw that. > Not everything came back the same. I do sometimes miss the old webUI. The search function was useful, and it was a handy place to point people to when you wanted to reference an old mailing list posting. But, I certainly don't have the time and skills to re-create it, so I've got absolutely no right to complain. After setting up and maintaining gmane.org for all those years, there's no way Mr. Ingebrigtsen's positive karma balance has been noticably reduced by the bumpy transition that resulted in gmane.io. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
