I think someone has archived the data for us here https://www.mail-archive.com/cvs-all@haskell.org/. I don't have a good way to map the old links to new ones, though. 2017-09-28 11:01 GMT+01:00 Bartosz Nitka :

Hello,

I was reading a comment that pointed to http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2007-September/038458.html. It's a dead link and I couldn't find any place where cvs-ghc is archived. I've tried webarchive.

Looks like Simon had a simliar problem 4 years ago: http://ghc-devs.haskell.narkive.com/3dIDGsHy/cvs-ghc-archives

Is the data forever lost?

There aren't actually that many references in the source tree: ./libraries/base/configure.ac:# See http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2011-September/065980.html ./libraries/base/configure:# See http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2011-September/065980.html ./libraries/base/autom4te.cache/output.0:# See http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2011-September/065980.html ./rts/linker/Elf.c: * See thread http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2007-September/038458.html ./rts/Linker.c: // see http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2007-September/038570.html ./testsuite/tests/typecheck/should_fail/tcfail201.hs:-- http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/cvs-ghc/2008-June/043173.html

I'm happy to remove them if that's what we want to do.

Coincidentally cvs-ghc@haskell.org appears 58 times in the GHC source tree. Do we want to keep using it?

Thanks, Bartosz
