[pmwiki-devel] gmane

[Petko Yotov]

Unfortunately Gmane was closed in 2016 and only partially restored since 
then:

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmane

I've searched archive.org for the URL you're looking for but it was 
never archived.

We have the mailing list archives on 
https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/ but some well 
intentioned users added links to Gmane instead. Gmane was 
full-text-searchable while ours is only chronological/threaded. 
Unfortunately Gmane is now gone.

Your URL is referenced from BmWiki/BasicVariables. If we know who and 
most importantly when the link was added, we can search our own archive 
around that date. Unfortunately, the page history on pmwiki.org was set 
to expire after 1 year and we cannot know who and when added the link. 
:-(

I've scanned our archives for the $AuthPw string, here are those which 
contain it:

   https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/2006-October.txt.gz
   https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/2007-August.txt.gz
   https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/2008-January.txt.gz
   https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/2008-May.txt.gz
   https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/2011-April.txt.gz

You should be able to download them, unzip them and open them in your 
text editor to search for the term. If you find the specific message 
that is relevant to the documentation, please find the individual 
message page at https://www.pmichaud.com/pipermail/pmwiki-users/ and 
redirect the BasicVariables link to there (rather than Gmane or the 
gzipped monthly archive).

Good luck,
Petko
