Hi Gmane admins, Our admin of the server at fltk.org (server for fltk.general et al) informs me our server will be down for a while, and tells me we may not have backups of our own mailing list archive of the fltk.* newsgroups. I'm investigating if we can possibly reconstruct our article database from a mailing list archive on the web; and I thought of gmane, as I've always liked your threaded web interface to our mailing list. Was wondering if it would be OK to use your archive of our list to help reconstruct our newsgroup database? I looked into pulling the data via NNTP, but I think the headers are a bit reconstructed with gmane-specific info.. was wondering if the original NNTP headers are available? -Greg Ercolano (on behalf of our fltk.org admin, Michael Sweet)


It's now up again. I should put a backup MTA on one of the machines,
probably...
