At <https://lists.ourproject.org/pipermail/implementations-list/>, there are gzipped mbox archives per-month, so it's not that bad -- I can just download them all and `cat' them into a single file, but I thought I'd ask anyway -- do you have access to a single file containing all the archives?
No, I see no such option in the admin pages. :(
I assume it's rather uncontroversial that we should be something in the `gmane.emacs' hierarchy, so the question is about that "something". My suggestion is `gmane.emacs.vim-emulation'
I think this is the best suggestion, since the list also talks about other packages like viper-in-more-modes.el and vim-mode.
as a side note, the name of this list has always seemed really bad to me -- it says nothing about what the list is about; but I guess we have to live with that -- and those who might come after us, too.
It can be changed. Here are the relevant fields from the administrative interface, along with descriptions: REAL_NAME: implementations-list The capitalization of this name can be changed to make it presentable in polite company as a proper noun, or to make an acronym part all upper case, etc. However, the name will be advertised as the email address (e.g., in subscribe confirmation notices), so it should not be otherwise altered. (Email addresses are not case sensitive, but they are sensitive to almost everything else :-) DESCRIPTION: Vi/Vim implementations list This description is used when the mailing list is listed with other mailing lists, or in headers, and so forth. It should be as succinct as you can get it, while still identifying what the list is. SUBJECT_PREFIX: [implementations-list] This text will be prepended to subject lines of messages posted to the list, to distinguish mailing list messages in mailbox summaries. Brevity is premium here, it's ok to shorten long mailing list names to something more concise, as long as it still identifies the mailing list. You can also add a sequential number by %d substitution directive. eg.; [listname %d] -> [listname 123] (listname %05d) -> (listname 00123) Although changing them isn't painless, if there ever was a right moment to do it, it is now.
3. By default, nowadays Gmane encrypts all mail addresses in the news and web interfaces as an anti-spam measure (it looks like <[email protected]>).
Personally, I prefer people to see my real address. Vegard _________________________________________________________________ Få nye Windows Live™ Messenger. http://download.live.com/messenger
