I now have a guess to why none of these tools were working for me: I probably got my repo with --lazy. I don't know how darcs works, but now that the base repo is offline, all the tools are trying and failing to fetch the patches from c.h.o. There was a post a few hours ago that c.h.o should return with code soon. When that happens, I'll try to run darcs-fastconvert on the latest version of the repo. It's probably not worthwhile to keep two copies of the repo; we might as well use just Github, since everybody seems okay with that. A GitHub Organization [1] also seems appropriate. Unless anybody objects, I'll try to create an Organization for Yi and make some other commiters admins in that group. (I've never used this before, but it looks appropriate.) I might put my pointedlist package [2], originally scraped from Yi, into that organization too.
