Rails - Aug 2006 - OT -- What is with all the fragmented threads recently?

Is it my imagination or has there been a huge increase in the number
of fragmented threads in the last several days?  Maybe it''s Gmail
doing something crazy, but I see dozens of top-level conversations
starting with replies (ex. "Re: [Rails] omfg something broke").

Did people collectively forget what the "reply" button looks like, or
is the list software doing something weird?

	I was just wondering the same thing. It seems like answers to  
threads that I never saw the original question for are popping up all  
over the place. Is rubyforum or something else not sending posts to  
the real mailing list?

I suspect it has to do with DHH''s comments regarding servers being  
added to support additional traffic to trac and mailman.

I''ve posted 3 that haven''t made it. I''ll from nabble.

[will this make it? double-post --> posted via nabble]

I suspect it has to do with DHH''s comments regarding servers being
added to
support additional traffic to trac and mailman.

I''ve posted 3 that haven''t made it. I''ll try from
nabble.

Glad I''m not the only one.  I''m also receiving the mailing
list via
gmail, so i wonder if it''s there.  But I''ve noticed that
I''m getting
all the threads but in the wrong order.  The timestamps are all  
screwy, putting the replies before the original posts, etc...
Not sure what''s going on.

Here''s another example.  I never saw Ezra''s reply to my
original post
until Jodi replied to it.

If I look at the subject field for the last ten mailing list digests  
I see:

Vol 23, Issue 277, 272, 271, 270. 267, 266, 265, 264, 263, 254

so I''d conclude that the mailing list software is dropping some
volumes.

The list is definitely not regular.  Lots of people double posting answers
as well.

i see this too. and i use gmail.
even in this thread there are many doublepostings and the order seems to be
fucked up. either gmail is broken or the list. or we. :)

does anybody have this issue who does NOT use gmail?

It''s just made it to me, having taken about 58 hours to get here.

One of the messages that reached my mailbox this morning was sent on the 
9th - five days ago. I hope the new server sorts this out.

Yep, me too, and I use regular email client. The list is a bit off  
the place...
