Hi everybody,
I have asked marc.info if they can host the gdb-patches mailing list
for us, and the said, that incidentally, they started to archive
gdb-patches in 1997, and just forgot to put them online after that.
So if you happen to dislike the current mailing list web interface,
as I do, you can use that one instead:
https://marc.info/?l=gdb-patches
Bernd.

There are also the NNTP archives on gmane.io. They even contain the
full headers.

Thanks that is also good.
BUT I have a discovered a very serious problem with the mailing lists
that must be fixed by our overseers.
That is the scubbed attachments.
As an example please look at this one:
https://marc.info/?l=gdb-patches&m=158571308379946&w=2
you see this:
-------------- next part --------------
A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
Name: 0001-Fix-range-end-handling-of-inlined-subroutines.patch
Type: text/x-patch
Size: 10992 bytes
Desc: not available
URL: <http://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/attachments/20200313/5158bb87/attachment.bin>
So there are two serious problems here:
1. there is a single point of failure, if sourceware.org goes down the attachment is lost.
2. since the url is http: a man in the middle can impersonate sourceware.org and give you a
virus instead of my patch file.
It does not help that sourceware.org redirects the download to https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/attachments/20200313/5158bb87/attachment.bin
an attacker will not be so polite to do that.
@overseeers: PLEASE STOP IMMEDIATELY THAT SCRUBBING
Thanks
Bernd.
