It feels stupid to subscribe an archiver agent to the list when a public-inbox repository is conveniently available for cloning. However, if we just clone the repository over and integrate it into lore, we need to indicate that we're just copying bits over from some other location -- I cannot delete things from the archive on my own any more. > (I wonder what should be the effect on lore.kernel.org if > lore.barebox.org removes a mail.
