Summary: We take stock of some recent changes and developments, which are partly bad news and partly good news

THE public archive of the Gemini mailing list has been down for a number of weeks already. It's a darn shame, but there's a plan to correct the issue some time soon. In the words of the official site:

Welcome back to emptiness; from emptiness

The hard-drive is unwell, perhaps permanently so. All services are gone. Some will come back in time.

If you appreciated one of the services and would like it back, or anything else, contact me:

The official site of Gemini says at the very top:

Announcement

The mailing list is currently down due to a hardware failure. It will reappear in some form or another as soon as possible. Watch this space.

Undeterred by this setback, the Gemini space (or Geminispace) continues to expand. According to Lupa:

There are 1927 capsules. We successfully connected recently to 1567 of them.

It seems safe to predict 2,000 capsules this month or next month.

The video above is commentary about the state of Gemini and the new metadata added to video files generated with our scripts (changes are visible in Git, which we only make available over gemini://).

Gemini Protocol is quickly gaining popularity among Free software folks; we hope to see 5,000 capsules by the end of this year. ⬆
