Description

As it says on https://irclog.perlgeek.de/:

I'm sorry, but I had to shut down the IRC logs.

Quotable was relying on that website to pull the logs from for grepping, so anything after 2018-04-28 will not appear in its search results. I guess we should use colabti now? It currently provides logs for the identical range of dates, so the log puller should simply be rewritten.

Research direction

Locate the current log puller that reads from irclog.perlgeek.de, then compare its behavior with the colabti Perl 6 log URL mentioned in the issue. Update the puller so logs after 2018-04-28 can be retrieved and searched, and verify that the previously missing date range appears in Quotable results.
