List change

I'm the owner/chief for the qmail-toaster project, and would like email 
address encryption to be turned off for the 
gmane.mail.qmail.toaster.mirrors list. Can someone here make this happen?

Thanks to everyone *very* much for such a great service.

Is it possible?

To disable on gmane attachment of files on post?
Or to make a list default behaviour to NOT archive posts?

gmane.comp.window-managers.enlightenment.cvs needs to be updated

The Enlightenment project has moved to git, so
gmane.comp.window-managers.enlightenment.cvs should be updated to fetch mail
from enlightenment-git <at> lists.sourceforge.net instead of
enlightenment-svn <at> lists.sourceforge.net

Gwene duplicate feeds

My cunning plan to subscribe to a feed of latest titles from a
ScienceDirect journal failed miserably, when I was told

  http://rss.sciencedirect.com/publication/science/07477171

was already signed up as

  gwene.com.sciencedirect.ecological.modeling.latest.content

I was suspicious, since I thought I was getting the titles from the
Journal of Symbolic Computation (somewhat different...) It turns out
that the group that was already signed up is at

  http://rss.sciencedirect.com/publication/science/03043800

and that the two feeds only differ in the numbers at the
end. (Explanation of the non-human-readable URLs: The feed URLs are
generated by some godawful "Make your own RSS feed" thingy at the
ScienceDirect site. I think it probably saves a dictionary of (ID,
"search query"), where the query can be "The articles in this journal,
please")

Anyway, is there any way gwene could be configured not to view the two
URLs as identical and to allow me to subscribe to the journal articles?

Many thanks,

Rupert

More about SPAM

Posted on gmane.comp.hardware.microcontrollers.pic this afternoon : 

"I had the displeasure to notice that all Piclist messages are still archived on
gmane.org (this is good), but that now, unlike when I last looked, they are no
longer cloaked. I have also noticed a tremendous increase in spam. 
It is not clear how or if this new and surprising lack of email address
cloaking, normally a standard measure taken by any forum or list online, relates
to the Oslo shootings (Breivik), and possible law changes there, as gmane.org is
based in Norway. There was no message announcing the dropping of cloaking I
remember.
In any case, all piclist emails, in clear, are and have been online and
searchable by search engines by means of the gmane web interface. The url is:

  http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.microcontrollers.pic

Note that all other lists archived on gmane are also affected, and there are
hundreds or thousands. I am not going to count them. IMNSHO, something should be
done about this, possibly admins contacting the gmane.org operator by email and
discussing the problem.

thanks for reading,
  Peter

PS: please pass this on to other lists or list members archived there if needed,
others may not (yet) be aware of the problem.
Note that gmane.org archives a LOT of free and open source related lists, and
that the damage has already been done to a lot of people. I know that my spam
backlog has exploded in the past few weeks, but I have no proof it is gmane
related. Searching for my own full email with site:gmane.org filter on the web
certainly found 'me' plenty of places, something which did not happen before.

Gwene delete g.c.stackoverflow.feeds.tag.elasticsearch

Hiya.  The tag for Elasticsearch on Stack Overflow changed, so the
gwene group is not working.  It used to point to

http://stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag/elastic-search

But now it's

http://stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag/elasticsearch

So can we delete this group and I'll resubscribe it?

gwene.com.stackoverflow.feeds.tag.elasticsearch

Thanks!

So. Cal. Time Warner blocked?

Is gmane.org blocking so-cal.rr.com again? I can't seem to get access for a
couple weeks now.

gmane.emacs.w3m

Hi,

I don't know since when, but the gateway between the mailing
list emacs-w3m <at> namazu.org[1] and the newsgroup gmane.emacs.w3m
doesn't function.  Only the ones crossposted to others appeared.
How do we make it revive?

Thanks,

[1] http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/index-en.html#mailing_list

Cannot write to gwene.org.archlinux.devel

I want to post to the list gwene.org.archlinux.devel but I don't receive the

Thanks in advance

I wonder whether I can use linked clone of virtualbox for qed format image.

Hi,

Because I tried linked clone for vdi or vmdk format image, it worked. But it 
didn’t work when I tried lined clone for qed format image. Virtualbox error is 
RPC_E_SERVERFAULT (0x80010105). I don’t why? I guess virtualbox didn’t support 
linked clone for qed format image at the moment, right?  Thanks in advanced.

Yours,
Andy

spam

Started participating in two new gmane groups this morning, and quick 
like a bunny I started getting spam.  Isn't there *some* way of hiding 
real email address from everybody except the gmane server?  (I know 
there is, and we've been over it before, and it's apparently too much 
effort, but spam just p*sses me off.)
