The official archive is here:

http://lists.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-dev/2021-February/subject.html

There's also a searchable archive (probably not needed for this problem) at:

https://lists.archive.carbon60.com/mythtv/dev/

and the reports on the dev list are all from very recent commits; your 
report of 'a month ago' puts it in a new light.
