[ANNOUNCE] public-inbox.org mirrors of sox-devel and sox-users

[ANNOUNCE] public-inbox.org mirrors of sox-devel and sox-users

[Eric Wong]

For those of you unable to remain subscribed to SF.net,
I am putting JavaScript-free mirrors on public-inbox.org:

	https://public-inbox.org/sox-users/
	https://public-inbox.org/sox-devel/

NNTP readers may use:

	nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.audio.sox
	nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.audio.sox.devel

You can also "git clone --mirror" those URLs and periodically
run "git fetch" to update them.

You can also do a read-only subscription via mlmmj using:

	sox-users+subscribe@public-inbox.org
	sox-devel+subscribe@public-inbox.org

This will enable you to read messages posted to the
associated address @lists.sourceforge.net, but not post...

I'm not sure how to enable posting via public-inbox.org
addresses.  I suppose I can throw together some Perl and
forward posts to SF.net using my personal address, with
correct attribution...

All the code for public-inbox is available under AGPL-3.0+:
	git clone https://public-inbox.org/public-inbox

Let me understand this: beng subscribed to the mailing list means
I get the messages via email. What Java-Script problem problem are
we trying to solve here? Is it the fact that the archive web page
https://sourceforge.net/p/sox/mailman/sox-devel/
using javascript. Is that the problem?

What good is a maling list I cannot post to?

Please don't. Let there be _one_ place for the actual mailing list to exist
(be it SF ore anything else); there are plenty of archove sites indexing
the SoX lists already, e.g.

http://marc.info/?l=sox-users&r=1&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=sox-devel&r=1&w=2

The problem is SourceForge is requiring users reconfirm existing
subscriptions, and that reconfirmation requires JS and CAPTCHA.

I still find reading archives useful.  Sorry for the old message
bounces, though, I misconfigured mlmmj and did not fix it
quickly, enough.

Those links will likely stop updating unless marc.info reconfirm
all their subscriptions (and every other SF list).

To stay subscribed one has to follow sf's url to a re-confirm page which
only works w/ js.

It looks like all sf subscription additions and removals will requier
such nonsense now.
