BTW, until very recently, we used to have a "syslinux-commits" mailing
list (and its archive).

Would it be possible to have "syslinux-commits" back (and its
archive)?

IIRC, it was "linked" to the commits published at

 git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git/ 

but I could be misremembering.

It would be helpful if the "syslinux-commits" mailing list (and 
archive) would be re-established _before_ updating the git.zytor.com 
repo with the recent commits.

TIA,
Ady.

You are right, I didn't notice it was broken. I'll fix it (I suspect I
know
the problem.)

Fixed, I think.
