Thanks, I'd like to see an LKML version, too :) First, I want to ensure public-inbox can handle large repos better, first. public-inbox.org/git has been doing well so far, even on a low-end VM with 2 cores and 2GB RAM.

I don't have anything close to full history of LKML, and download.gmane.org is down, right now :< I'd use NNTP, but news.gmane.org gets overloaded from slrnpull and I even got temporarily banned there before discovering download.gmane :x

Maybe I'll do what was done with linux.git in 2005 and just ignore old mail for a while...
