    ml> both have the same date of 2009 Jul 29 as do all the other    
    ml> archives at johan's mercurial repository   
      
    BF>    That's often what happens when you upload files to an external   
    BF> site -- you get a new timestamp. That's what e.g. happened when I   
    BF> uploaded  the entire FidoNews archive to fidonet.eu.   
      
   yeah... i didn't try pulling one to see what the timestamps were internal to   
   the archives... i probably should just to ensure that they are basically the   
   same as i have...   
      
    BF>    On my "repository" all the old timestamps are maintained. And   
    BF> you also can find the missing parts needed to run Johan's perl   
    BF> scripts there (the TimeDate add-ons -- just remember that TimeZone   
    BF> must be changed to Zone in Johan's scripts).

   thanks... i might take a look... i don't know why i'd need those scripts but i   
   may look depending on how things go...   
      
    ml> looks like i might wanna grab a few more things from there...   
    ml> loganalyzer being one... checkgroups maybe being another...   
    ml> areasbbs2jamnntpd might be ok but i don't use areas.bbs files on my   
    ml> system...   
      
    BF>    They are all very valuable to anyone running JamNNTPd, so I   
    BF> recommend everybody to have them handy.   
      
   in my setup, the loganalyzer is probably the only one that i'd use... none of   
   the others can do anything for my setup with its binary configs... i'd   
   thought, one time, about writing a ra2jamnntpd tool that would create the   
   groups and areas based on the groups in my RA setup but i never went further   
   than thinking about it and how i might do it... one item i ran into was that   
   an area can belong to more than one group in RA and i can't really cross that   
   over to a nntp style setup... so maybe just sticking to the first group would   
   be the thing to do... they're only access perms so...
