So "strict date-time order" is dependent on when public-inbox.org
receives the mail, not according to the Date: header?

If so, the Atom feed is chronological:
https://public-inbox.org/git/new.atom

There's also https://public-inbox.org/git/new.html which is the
default landing page for admins who don't run Xapian search.

NNTP article numbers on news.public-inbox.org are also
chronological according to time received at public-inbox.org

If you want to go according to the Date: header, you can use
an empty search query:

        https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=

I'm not sure if new.html is linked, anywhere.  It's only the
default view for non-Xapian users, I'll see about making it more
visible.

All the search terms use "q" as the query parameter name,
similar to how existing search engines work (at least DuckDuckGo
and Google).

I think escaping the ':' is safer, so that becomes '%3A':

        https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=gmane%3A5

But maybe the following works for most people:

        https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=gmane:5

However, you can expand the "thread" view with an extra "x=t":

        https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=gmane%3A5&x=t

(or x=A for Atom feed)


Hope that helps!
