Re: Lists history (was: Re: commit failed due to "backwards-sliding source views" - what do I do?)

I pinged InfraAdmin offlist on the day he asked me to, told him where to
find the files (already prepared in the format mod_mbox expects
internally: gzipped mboxes in a particular naming pattern), and he
acknowledged. So from where I'm sitting, the ball is in Infra's court.

My initial thinking is that we are going to decommission mail-*.apache.org, so any solution basically means: backfill on lists.a.o. That is going to require some coordination with our vendor. I'm tending towards "yes", but the path isn't clear yet.
