Actually it does exactly that (whitelisted IP doing rsync), ever sinceThe Indicident. I used to just fetch all mbox files for all Guix bugs,but this put the Debbugs servers under excessive load. After theserver’s IP was blocked from accessing Debbugs we negotiated rsyncaccess.
We do have full text search on issues.guix.gnu.org. It was brought tomy attention that it’s not yielding expected results since a while,though, so this would have to be investigated.
