I will be making some fixes to both news.i2pn2.org and novabbs.org over the weekend, maybe into the 25th.

There will be some downtime on each, as part of the process will be rebuilding the overviews.

They will each be back up and running asap, but do expect some downtime when I decide to get started.

I guess that is why messages were pulling slow. I was wondering if there
were a string of glitches in the Matrix.

Good luck! :)

BTW, do you think it would be feasible to add a couple of pl.* groups to
https://news.novabbs.org/aus+uk/?

I saw on some groups (pl.misc.elektronika, pl.rec.rowery) that people
complain about losing access to the convenient web interface when Google
shuts down its gates to hell. Maybe it would be a good alternative for
them...

Timing is always against us :)

All should be done now. Non-existent messages should be out of the overview, and I have moved files around to make it much easier to add resources to avoid expiring articles in the future.

Most of the wrapping around (cnfs) happened while I was sick, and I really didn't think about the servers much during this past year, lol. Now I'm thinking about them again.

It was nice to see inn2 servers and rslight servers just run unattended for months.
