Hey all, I've been busy with public-inbox work this year. I started working on a read-only IMAP/IMAPS server, and I expect kernel.org to eventually host a v2 copy, too; and hopefully other folks get interested in mirroring.

For now, you can access git@vger archives through 8 IMAP mailboxes sliced into ~50K messages to not overload clients. They go from 0..7, with 7 being the most recent:

imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.0 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.1 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.2 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.3 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.4 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.5 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.6 imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.7

When more messages show up, imaps://public-inbox.org/INBOX.comp.version-control.git.8 should exist.

I've tested with mutt, offlineimap and mbsync (isync).

It's not yet complete (when is software ever?), but it's a usable start, I think. Some more info about it over on meta@public-inbox.org: https://public-inbox.org/meta/20200609113442.GA16856@dcvr/ https://public-inbox.org/meta/20200610070519.18252-1-e@yhbt.net/ And maybe JMAP is coming, too...
