Thanks, I will also add that existing gmane links can be looked up
in instance I maintain via:

	public-inbox.org/git/?q=gmane:123456

It might be worth it to convert numeric links to Message-IDs in older
editions, as I also published a mapping at:

   https://public-inbox.org/.temp/gmane.comp.version-control.git-300599.txt.gz

Based on closer reading of RFC3986, section 3.3, I deployed a
change to URL generation last night so the "%40" escape for '@'
no longer shows up in generated URLs (along with a few other
characters):

   https://public-inbox.org/meta/20160814105152.21925-1-e@80x24.org/

It might be worth updating this edition to avoid the percent
escaping since it might confuse users about what the Message-IDs
are (and to avoid users passing "%40" into their MUA)

Old URLs will always continue working, of course.
