Today I want to express my support and appreciation for Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen. For those not familiar, Lars created and has been running the utterly terrific email archiving service Gmane for 14 years. I've long admired both Gmane's engineering excellence and integrity.
Unfortunately, one downside of wide impact is stress. Angry people. Vandalism, in the form of denial of service computer attacks. I don't know everything Lars has been through, but it's substantial and he's frustrated. It's time for change. https://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/2016/07/28/the-end-of-gmane/ I don't know exactly what the change will be, but The Mail Archive will do anything we can to help. I've contacted Lars and made that clear. I suspect he's getting an outpouring of support, and hopefully will be able to choose amongst good options for the future. Thank you Lars, for everything. Especially the fun.
