linux-mm for lore.kernel.org

[Daniel Jordan]

Hi,

I'm working on adding linux-mm to lore.kernel.org, as previously discussed
here[1], and seem to have a mostly complete archive, starting from the
beginning in November '97.  My sources so far are the list admin's files
(thanks Ben and Rik), gmane, and my own inbox.

However, with disk corruption and downtime, it'd be great if people could pitch
in with what they have to ensure nothing is missing.  lore.kernel.org has been
archiving linux-mm since December 2018, so only messages before that date are
needed.

Instructions for contributing are here:

  https://korg.wiki.kernel.org/userdoc/lore

These are the message ids captured so far:

  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JdpS0X1P-r0sSDg2wE1IIzrAFNN8epIE/view?usp=sharing

This uncompressed file may be passed to the -k switch of the tool in the
instructions to filter out what's already been collected.

Please tar up and xz -9 any resulting directories of mbox files and send them
to me (via sharing link if > 1M) by Feb 12, when I plan to submit the archive.

Suggestions for other sources also welcome.

Thanks,
Daniel

I appear to have everything going back to Feb 2001.  But I am
fearsomely lazy.  I can upload the per-year mboxes to ozlabs.org?

Sure.  Thanks for helping.

Other people are welcome to do similar things, but please share the files in
mbox or maildir form, lest I run up against my own formidable laziness.
