Hi Peter,

I'm getting COMMITTERS OK but last week I noticed I wasn't getting HACKERS
any more.

Try sending a "show  peter_e@gmx.net" in the body of a message to
majordomo@hub.org to see if you're still subscribed.

Keith.

Coming through fine for me (at least when hub.org isn't wedged
completely, which it was several times over the weekend...)

We hit a corruption of -general again this past week (I've really gotta
dive into getting the postgresql backend working for majordomo instead of
Berkeley DB :( ) ... it was causing a perl process of 900+Meg to run,
which caused the load avg to climb unreasonably :(

Oooo, ooo, how about instead writing a ndbm/gdbm/whateverdb wrapper for
postgres? 

Configurable by some file in /etc, where it would establish correspondence
between "file" argument to dbopen() and a postgres view. This would rock
for converting applications which only support dbm mappings (such as
sendmail) to use postgres transparently.

The only problem I see with it is db->fd() function which returns a
filedescriptor for the file, which some apps rely on to do flock/fcntl. On
other hand, locking of that kind will be unnecessary for postgres, so it
can return fd of some file in /tmp...

There's an attempt to do this at http://www.is.kiruna.se/~goran/ldap/arkiv/
but its very raw and not configurable.
