I can actually _already_ get hyperkitty to give me mbox files, and those have the original, non-munged email addresses anyway. It actually _would_ be useful to have access to non-munged login names so I can cross-reference mailing list activity with dist-git, bodhi, etc. The problem is that this tool is kind of unwieldy, and it takes a long time and creates fairly big local database. I was thinking it'd be easier to just have access to the native, existing database and I can figure out how to translate any existing sample queries to get the results I want. (And also, share those queries, because as more people move to mailman3, they might also want to do the same things without a separate tool.) -- Matthew Miller <[email protected]> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
