Subject: Re: [PATCH] Selectively archive by timestamp
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2014 20:34:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141212203457.GA32482@c3po> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140929141641.GA32551@c3po>

Did this patch get lost in the noise?

It's a fairly straightforward one, which simply adds a useful new
archiving function without touching much else.

Archiving by date seems such an obvious omission from the existing
archiving commands, I wouldn't have thought this patch was too
controversial. (Unless someone doesn't like the choice of keybinding, in
which case by all means change it!)

Best,
Toby
