I am about to propose the end of Planet Humbug. The reasons follow. If
you will be very distressed by this, please reply in the very near
future (preferably direct to me) with reasons to keep it alive.

The main reason for killing it off  is that nothing new has appeared
on it since 21 January 2018 — more than a year — and nobody has
noticed or complained.

What has happened is that the planet runner utility has been run every
15 minutes and has generated a failure email each time, so that there
are now 34,074 such messages (amounting to over 13 million lines) in a
mailbox that nobody reads.

So, can we kill it off?
