Thanks, Lars ``` ## Jeff King, 2016-07-28 13:52 Subject: Re: Alternatives to mid.gmane.org?

I'm deploying and reindexing this change to one of the onions, first. So, to get article 123 from "gmane:123": http://czquwvybam4bgbro.onion/git/?q=gmane%3A123 (%3A is the URI escape for ':') For those unable to run Tor, you can also try using a Tor2web proxy listed at https://www.tor2web.org/ For example: http://czquwvybam4bgbro.onion.to/git/?q=gmane%3A123 Additionally, searching by Message-ID with the search box will also work after the reindexing (instead of just using the Message-ID in the URL): https://public-inbox.org/meta/20160810232358.GA29130@whir/ After this is fully-deployed and working well; the plan is also to be able to fix existing gmane links (and also handling the $gmane/NNN links that were commonly used). > https://public-inbox.org/.temp/gmane.comp.version-control.git-300599.txt.gz > (~5 MB) > > Script used to generate this: > > https://public-inbox.org/meta/20160728220145.13024-1-e@80x24.org/ ```
