You probably can figure out what the good news is on your own given the ton of freebsd-doc email you needed to wade through to get to this message. The bad news is for the people who are subscribed for a "digest" mode of receiving the mailing list messages. I'm afraid the problem with the list was some sort of subtle corruption in the "pending digest" file. I managed to catch Peter tonight and he gave me enough hints to locate the overall problem. I made several attempts at isolating exactly what in the digest file was messed up but I couldn't (testing involves shutting down both mailman and postfix on hub, not something you can do very often...). So for now the entire pending digest file got moved out of the way. I might try to do a little more testing offline somehow if I can but at the moment I'm afraid I need to just punt on the currently pending digest. It spans messages from Jan 24th through today. The Web archiver is still churning away so it will still be a day or so before the backlog of messages that just popped loose makes it to the Web archive but maybe you can catch anything you missed there. We're sorry for the inconveniences this has caused. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
