Should be better now. A list moderator was running a rogue script that
was sending tens of thousands of messages. Alerts have been updated to
catch things like that earlier.

[Savannah-hackers-public] Mailman lagging behind, again

2015-11-16 Thread Eli Zaretskii
Once again, mailman on GNU lists lags behind, by about 2 days.  E.g.,
messages that appear under today's date in emacs-devel's archives were
mostly sent on Nov 14.

Is this another case of some attack on the list server?  Can something
be done to rectify the situation?

TIA.

We're aware and are working on it, and are improving our alerts to
do a better job notifying us about this.
