I just went to the archives page for the Gentoo-user mailing list, and there are no entries for April, it stops mid-March. Same for the few other lists I checked. The lists are functioning fine in terms of sending/receiving new messages, it just seems to be the archive that has dropped the ball.
https://infra-status.gentoo.org/notice/20230404-archives ElasticSearch brokeness from the Ruby upgrade in Infra. The ES ruby module doesn't support older ES anymore because of upstream business decisions tied to licensing. The best choice there is to update the codebase to support newer ES properly, and upgrade ES.
Is there a list of alternatives we might use in the meantime?
(In reply to Jack from comment #2) > Is there a list of alternatives we might use in the meantime? I recommend MARC. E.g. https://marc.info/?l=gentoo-dev&m=167924896107946

Ping, it's been 4 months with none of the archives working
(In reply to zurabid2016 from comment #5) > Ping, it's been 4 months with none of the archives working We know, but pinging isn't really going to do anything. We need someone to look at the bit in comment 1. Could you help with that? mgorny gave some details at https://social.treehouse.systems/@mgorny@fosstodon.org/110581776526875721 too.
IMO just set up a public-inbox, it's a superior interface to every other mailing list software I've seen before, it's easy to set up unlike mailman, etc.
grub-devel was recently mirrored onto lore [1]. Being able to read/link to threads on p-i makes for a much better experience than the mailman at list.gnu.org. It's probably not feasible to have the gentoo ml's mirrored there, but setting up one on Gentoo infra would be nice.

public-inbox.gentoo.org is pretty much ready as a replacement now. I will look at doing the redirect on the weekend.
We're doing final tests on the redirect rules which Robin ended up doing.
We now have https://archives.gentoo.org/ (same as https://public-inbox.gentoo.org/, but please use archives instead) with redirects for the old archive links too. Thank you to Robin for doing the work to get it over the line, and Eli for nagging about getting me to set it up to begin with.
