If Google (as opposed to Google Groups) doesn't find a recent page
then it's hard to know whether Google had trouble indexing that
page or if they haven't attempted to index it yet. Does anybody
know how fast Google usually finds new messages in the archives?
The most recent message I found from myself on Google was from
11 Feb, so if they're usually faster then maybe that can narrow
down when the problem started. Do the web server logs show anything
interesting?
archives.postgresql.org appears to stop on 17 Feb; searching for
common words like "select" and names of frequent posters doesn't
find anything newer than that. Maybe that's an additional clue
about when something went awry.
