I actually do, too. I keep a local archive of the whole list, and I have
a script that hits gmane to convert their article ids into message-ids.
When gmane is down I can still use my archive, but I can't resolve
anybody's article mentions. :)
I mostly use gmane links because people are used to them, though (I also
don't think there's a way using message-ids to point to a whole thread
with an article highlighted, though of course readers can get their by
clicking through).

It seems to have a giant hole in git@vger messages between 2016-01-07
and 2016-01-20, which covers the referenced message (which was on the
14th).
