  • Not receiving posts

    From Jim Byrnes@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 23 14:29:28 2023
    I have been reading the python-list for some time now. At first via
    gemane and since it's demise via a subscription. Recently I noticed that
    I have not received any emails for quite sometime.

    I tried resubscribing but still have received no emails from the list.
    To my knowledge I have done nothing to warrant removal.

    Can you please check and see what I need to do to start receiving emails
    once more.

    regards, Jim Byrnes

    FWIW, gmane is still there, and still working fine. I read this list
    by pointing slrn at news.gmane.io

    For whatever reason, python-list decided to stop accepting postings
    via gmane, so postings do have to be e-mailed. I use a custom "inews"
    app to handle that:

    [The old gmane webUI apparently died and couldn't be resurrected.]

    It doesn't look like that address is subscribed. I tried inviting you, let's see if that works.

    Well gmane did die, and caused changes and the story is weird even by
    internet standards. And the founder eventually spilled....

    Not everything came back the same.

    Interesting! I had seen less detailed versions of that story
    elsewhere, but never saw that.

    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.
