We want to add to the archive changelog a list of notable changes in archival.
This is potentially endless, but here are some big ones that should be there:
- when we started crawling (before project announcement)
- when we started ingesting major forges/instances; ideally we should have an entry for each logo added to our archive coverage list
- bitbucket git repos (T592)
- cran (T1709)
- debian (announcement)
- github
- gitlab instances (T1139)
- gitorious (T312)
- google code (T673, T617, T682)
- GNU releases
- HAL (announcement)
- IPOL (announcement)
- npm (T1378)
- NixOS (T1991, first lister D2025...) (announcement)
- Guix (T1352)
- PyPI (announcement)
- save code now (announcement)
- major/notable events that have impacted archive coverage or structure
- what happened on 2020-03-01, explaining why archive started growing much faster (related to github listing/loading)
