For starters, I've grabbed a copy from haxx.se and mirrored it to
svn-qavm.apache.org and home.apache.org.¹
I've opened an INFRA ticket for importing the dev@ and users@ archives:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/INFRA/issues/INFRA-20213
Questions for us:
- TODO: Double check that there are no messages to
*@subversion.tigris.org in https://svn.haxx.se/dev/ and
https://svn.haxx.se/users/ in or after January 2011.
- TODO: The archives for 200911, 200912, and possibly a few subsequent
months contain messages to both the @s.t.o and @s.a.o mailing lists,
so there's a question of deduplication (how to remove @s.a.o messages
from the svn.haxx.se dataset before importing it).
- Do we want to import the https://svn.haxx.se/org/ archives as well?
- Do we want to import the archives of svn-full-committers@? (I guess
not?)
- And #svn-dev (the colabti.org channel logs)?
The archives of svnsecurity@ and security_at_s.t.o are already in the PMC
repository, and I believe they are complete. (I checked that the last
message in the mbox file in /repos/private and the last message in my
personal email archives match, and they do, modulo spam received
afterwards.)
Cheers,
Daniel
¹ If anyone wants to get a copy, you can get it via:
.
% sftp home.apache.org
sftp> cd /home/danielsh/svn-haxx-se-mirror/
sftp> get …
.
If you have access to svn-qavm.a.o you can alternatively do:
.
rsync -avP svn-qavm.apache.org:/srv/svn-haxx-se-mirror ./
