The developers had to reinstate a week-old backup of the entire mailing list server, including bans and subscriptions (on multiple, if not all, lists). This meant that users who had unsubscribed during that week started getting list mail again and those who had subscribed stopped getting the mail. It was very inconvenient. I'm not sure if it would be possible to salvage that gap in the archives. Sure, many people have list emails archived in their mail programs, but how would we transfer them across? This is a question for the Brion Vibbers and Tim Starlings of this world. ~Mark Ryan WikiEN-l mailing list administrator
