This message was rejected by the spam filter at vger.kernel.org. To ensure that everybody on the original email list gets the reply, I'm resending it as plain text (which I should have figured out long ago). I profusely apologize for the multiple resends.

Hi Lukas,

I apologize?for the delay.? As you may know, we recently emerged from Chapter 11 reorganization and I'm working on a lot of issues related to this.? I did get in touch?with Ralf, but I have not been able?to make progress with Hetzner.? I'm dependent on Ralf to help me get the machine at Hetzner working again.? I will continue?to try to do this.

If waiting for me to get linux-mips.org working is not an option, I understand that you may have to move on.? I know the disappearance of linux-mips.org has caused problems for you.? But can you please help me understand?the implication of your question: "should Thomas pick up the?remaining patches of this series?"? I am thinking the answer to that question is yes, but I'm not sure if I'm the right person to answer that question.??I guess I am somewhat clueless about how the patch process works for MIPS, and how linux-mips.org is involved.? If I am never able?to get linux-mips.org back online, what does that?mean?

So please understand that I want to keep the "MIPS infrastructure" items such as linux-mips.org functioning.? Any help or suggestions are welcomed.? Thank?you.

Regards,

Kurt

I have just established contact with Ralf, and I will be working with him to restore linux-mips.org back to life.? I just got the account and login information for the linux-mips.org hosting account at Hetzner from Chris Dearman.

It has been a month by now... I just wanted to check if linux-mips.org
is back on its way to be available. Or should Thomas pick up the
remaining patches of this series?
