Re: [libreplanet-discuss] Modernizing the Libreplanet Community Infrastructure

Feel free to do whatever you like with that regard - my proposal is unrelated 
since your software has no GUI, which would be a step in the opposite direction 
from my post.

Sorry, but my eyes glazed over when I clicked that link. Candidly, I think it 
makes Mailman's interface look not so bad after all.


But to each his own. Cheers!

I would be open to setting up a public-inbox mirror for this
and other GNU lists(*).

The most notable instance is the one I run for the git project:

        https://public-inbox.org/git/

All the code is AGPL-3.0+ and designed for low-end hardware
(both client and server): git clone https://public-inbox.org/

I already run one mirror for the FSF directory-discuss list, but
the HTTP interface is only available via Tor .onion, but I
suppose I can enable the HTTPS interface if folks want it.

        http://ou63pmih66umazou.onion/directory-discuss/
        nntp://ou63pmih66umazou.onion/inbox.comp.fsf.directory-discuss
        nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.fsf.directory-discuss

I'm not sure about enabling it to a non-Tor audience, since
there's zero address obfuscation and intended for communities
where nobody cares to obfuscate their address.

If desired by the FSF, I can enable email address obfuscation (a
new feature); but I advise against it since it increases the
chance of the list being a single-point-of-failure.  You'll note
the public-inbox.org/git "reply" links point to instructions for
using "git send-email" with a full command-line.

I'm 100% committed to keeping the project JavaScript-free and
catering to folks on low-end hardware.  I also detest GUIs since
graphics drivers are complex, quickly obsolete, expensive to
maintain, and more and more seem to require non-Free firmware
(or drivers are non-Free).

Disclaimer: I am not part of FSF or GNU; have no official role
in the git project and do not speak for them.  Perhaps the
best part of public-inbox is anybody can setup an archive of any
list.

(*) having full archives on ftp://lists.gnu.org/ makes it easy
    for anyone to do the same, even.
