Hello,
this is not an urgent issue, but I'd like to warn in advance that the
laa/lad/lau list archiving at www.eca.cx/la[adu] will stop some time next
year. I'm not sure of the exact date, but sooner or later anyway. Note
that I'm not going to take the existing archives offline, so all links
pointing to mails at eca.cx will still work.
Fortunately we nowadays have many other archives of the lists. We just now
need to pick a new official archive and update the links at:
http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/archive.php3
I propose that we use the archives at columbia.edu:
http://www.music.columbia.edu/pipermail/linux-audio-dev/
... and so on.
Very good archives can also be found at gmane.org:
http://gmane.org/info.php?group=gmane.linux.audio.devel
... and so on.

I'm not fond of these sites that archive by month with no apparent
search function. I suppose google solves that problem, though.

that won't really cut it, since they are not (yet) searchable, and
they lack the really old messages that went through
ginette.umontreal.ca way back when....
douglas, do you think we could set up a htdig engine on
roar.music.columbia.edu (all lists would benefit from that)?
i hope i don't overstretch columbia.edu's hospitality at some point....
if that's not possible, let me know and we'll find something else.
Very good archives can also be found at gmane.org:
http://gmane.org/info.php?group=gmane.linux.audio.devel
... and so on.
same problem regarding the old messages.
kai, i will keep looking for an alternative location, and i may need
to mirror the eca.cx archives at some time....
best,
jörn

Hi,
a quick update on this issue.

Ok, I've been now testing a new, semi-realtime, mechanism to archive the
lists. What's important is that this is something I can support also in
the future, so the archiving can continue for all three lists.
What I'm missing now is web space. I'd need:
* around +0.5G of web space
- the LAA/LAD/LAU archives are currently 0.5G, growing by 15M
each month
- I'll have to move eca.cx to a new server soon and I won't have
enough web space on the new server :(
* update via rsync-over-ssh
- mirroring the whole eca.cx/la[adu] tree
* if at all possible, a separate host name like lists.foobar.org
- possibility to use google to search the lists (by
searching with "site:lists.foobar.com keywords")
- htdig is a bit painful to maintain, I'd rather use google
... I will build some server-side magic to make redirects from
eca.cx/la[adu] to the new archive location so that existing links to the
archived mails will continue to work (and not just temporarily).
Now if anyone here is willing to donate some webspace for this purpose
(only the list archives, nothing else), please contact me privately.

based on the replies so far, I've now accepted Fernando's offer to host
the list archives at CCRMA. As they are already hosting the PlanetCCRMA
website and repositories, I guess the LAA/LAD/LAU lists fit nicely there.
And a big thanks to all who offered to provide hosting for the archives:
- Oliver Thuns
- Fernando Lopez-Lezcano
- Paul Brossier
- Eric Dantan Rzewnicki / Radio Free Asia
As always, it's nice to see how the la? community reacts in these
situations.
... but now back to the more interesting topics. :)
