I had contacted Konstantin Ryabitsev for Coccinelle list and asked if he could pull pipermail archives of coccinelle https://systeme.lip6.fr/pipermail/cocci/ And he says: https://korg.wiki.kernel.org/userdoc/lore#can_you_use_mailman_archives He further adds: "Just a note that GMail is not a requirement by any means -- the list-archive-maker script can be used against any mbox or maildir directory. Gmail just happens to be a place where people have most complete archives, since nobody bothers deleting anything there." Me: Can you pull IIO from marc.info ? KR: "Unfortunately, we cannot use marc.info archives, as they don't seem to include the original Message-ID, which is crucial for public-inbox purposes." Anyway, Coccinelle list is now live: https://lore.kernel.org/cocci/ If anyone wants to help send the tarballs of the archieve, please send them to me. And it is collaborative effort as all the tarballs will be piled up through a script in the aforementioned userdock link neatly and without any redundancies. The more(or old) the number of contributions, the better the archieve would be! Sadly, IIO list is not maintained as a pipermail otherwise it would have been easier to just pull it from there as done for Coccinelle. I will wait till first week of December for achieve donations and then poke Konstantin to fire up https://lore.kernel.org/iio/ and https://lore.kernel.org/kernelnewbies/ Thanks! -- Himanshu Jha Undergraduate Student Department of Electronics & Communication Guru Tegh Bahadur Institute of Technology
