1) I have published a short, but hopefully clear statement banning LLM use
for contributions to Notmuch. I understand that both the policy and the
lack of concensus building may annoy some people, but as the primary
person reviewing contributions and responsible for their long term maintenance, 
this is non-negotiable for me.

  https://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch/tree/CONTRIBUTING

Notmuch remains free software under the GPL3 or later, so of course you
can modify it how you like, and publish those modifications as you
choose. You just may not be able to upstream some changes, but
realistically that has always been the case.

2) Tangentially related, Carl had to replace the git web front end due to
load from (presumed) LLM scrapers. There may be be a few remaining
issues with git.notmuchmail.org, or links to git.notmuchmail.org in
other places. I think I got most of the boroken links to
git.notmuchmail.org, but see (3).

3) Write access to the wiki as documented in

   https://notmuchmail.org/wikiwriteaccess/

should be working again. It got taken down during the same scraper-bot
response.
