Until today, there've been no new posts since the 6th,
including the two I made on the 7th (and I also checked on
Gurgle ion case the problem was at my end; same results).
And I sent you an email (to ediacara.org) on the 15th that
bounced.

Several posts from various dates have just appeared. A couple are from
today. Does this appear?

It does to me, as does the one I made earlier today. But not
the two I made on the 7th.

No withdrawal symptoms here but I was getting a bit curious about what had
happened (sci.bio.evolution has been defunct for a long time). I saw some
limited discussion on sci.bio.paleontology on a thread about t.o. outage
and Ray was haranguing the poor atheists on alt.atheism.

Damn that's a busy group that looks a hot mess. Good thing DIG does what he
does here. Bet people got some needed housework and other stuff attended to
with all the free time afforded by group outage.

Yes. And in what appears now threading is still broken,

Correct. All post headers have three References: max, despite
multiple attributions in the quoted text. It appears to be similar to
the last time Darwin had a problem with threading, where it deleted
Referemces: lines from headers. As a reminder to DIG of his analysis
of that problem:

There was actually nothing wrong with beagle per se, there was evidently a
problem in routing incoming messages to beagle from the mod relays; I
tweaked DNS to tell the orld that 'darwin' was now really 'beagle' and
it seems to have unjammed the flow - before, even though I said 'send mail
to beagle' somehow the relays were still trying to send it to darwin,
which I'd deleted from DNS. 'Okay", I said, "you want to see darwin,
fine, darwin exists, but it's really beagle's IP". And thi seems (??)
to have solved the problem.

Unfortunately it is not that simple.
Some have none, despite being high in the tree.
Others have many more, without really searching I found one with seven.
It is not a matter of return delimited yes/no either.
Some of the references are mixed.
Neither is google the culprit.

I just don't know why it is broken the way it is,

Posts after 6/27 are the relevant subset here.

Other than OPs, I found none with no references. A cite would be
helpful.

>Others have many more, without really searching I found one with seven.

I found none with multiple reference lines, as contrasted to
concatenated references on a continuous line. Again, a cite would be
helpful.

>Some of the references are mixed.

I have no idea what you mean by "mixed references". Again, a cite
would be helpful.
