Thread about posix-compatible rc scripts gone missing?
Yesterday we were happily re-visiting a thread started by GrapeFruitGirl about posix-compliant rc scripts for Slackware. This morning I got a notification about a new posting in the thread, but when I clicked on the link it turned up a 'No thread specified' page. Anybody have any idea where the thread has gone?
In case the thread is lost due to hardware issue or something, I do have it in my "closed tabs list" in my browser from yesterday, minus maybe the last couple posts to the thread, one of which was mine, so we could restore it from that.
An update will come later on.
We must all pray to BOB for its safe return.
It was a bit above my present level of knowledge (like almost everything ), but interesting and educational.

There was some DB corruption caused by the outage. I've manually restored the thread data for threadid 778084 (no post data was corrupted). If any other members noticed a missing thread, please post the threadid and I'll see if it can be restored.

We've automated a sync process to find any thread table discrepancies between all replication points. I looks like we have roughly 100 threads missing. We are working to restore these now.
