git:// is rarely necessary these days, and IMAP (unlike NNTP)
doesn't advertise hostnames in its protocol, so we can use a
shorter one to avoid advertising other projects.
And stylize our domain name since "YHBT" is an acronym.

Tor is dropping v2 .onion in favor of more secure (but less
readable) v3 .onion URLs. Zooko's triangle once again :/
(no, we won't support planet-destroying proof-of-work schemes)

public-inbox.org started running an IMAP + IMAPS server.

bogomips.org is due to expire, and I can't justify paying
.org extortionists to renew it.

This should make it easier for distros to pick this
up without picking up olddoc, too.
We will still use olddoc for generating the website since it
reduces bandwidth costs, and for generating NEWS for our own
builds.
Also, remove the "private" email address since it might
be unfair to the public for people to send private support
requests.

Thanks to Let's Encrypt, the bogomips.org now supports
HTTPS so our homepage can be moved to:
https://bogomips.org/clogger/
While clogger.bogomips.org is part of the TLS certificate, it is
needless subjectAltName bloat that should not have been created.
This will also make it easier to have multiple homepages in
the future as a Tor hidden service.

You may (optionally) subscribe to the new mailing list at:
clogger-public+subscribe@bogomips.org
You'll need to subscribe manually since librelist subscribers cannot be
imported. Of course, you do not have to be subscribed to post, either
(please Cc: everyone as folks may not be subscribed).
If your ISP prevents you from using port 25, port 587 (submission) is
open on bogomips.org. You may use Tor if you do not wish to expose your
IP when using port 587.
Any HTML mail will be flagged as spam, so please do not send it and
waste storage and bandwidth on it. Basic, old-fashioned mailing list
conventions apply: no top-posting, trim replies, attribute your quotes,
short signatures, etc.
This existing list will operate in public-inbox "hijack mode":
the new address is subscribed to the old librelist, so any messages
sent to the librelist are automatically archived to the new
public-inbox. Of course, not much happens here, anyways, so
nobody notices :)
Background:
Over the years, I've come to disagree with the subscription-required
posting policy of librelist. Combined with disabling of rsync archives,
one of my main reasons for choosing librelist back in the day are gone.
Lately, I've also been working on public-inbox, http://public-inbox.org/
an "archives-first" approach to mailing lists using git.
ssoma (git) archives are available at:
git://bogomips.org/clogger-public/
The ssoma format is described at http://ssoma.public-inbox.org/
HTML archives are going to http://bogomips.org/clogger-public/
All archives imported from gmane, and posts to this librelist
also go there.

wrongdoc was difficult to maintain because of the tidy-ffi
dependency and the HTML5 changes in Darkfish could not be
handled well by Tidy.
olddoc is superior as it generates leaner HTML which loads faster,
requires less scrolling and less processing power to render.
Aesthetic comparisons are subjective of course but completely
unimportant compared to speed and accessibility.
The presence of images and CSS on the old (Darkfish-based) site
probably set unreasonable expectations as to my ability and
willingness to view such things. No more, the new website is
entirely simple HTML which renders well with even the wimpiest
browser.
