Why do we need a separate domain for this service? Isn't python.org/packages just as good? It seems to me like doc.python.org has been a disaster not worth repeating. (That is, whenever I do a search for Python documentation I can random mirrors and never see python.org results.)
agreed ... although it might be useful for the *service* if an alternate ip were needed. There has been previous suggestion that docs.python.org would be a good way of isolating the documentation for use with googles site search facility although this hasn't actually been implemented and you can achieve the same through using googles allinurl function eg
heres a search for pickle in the 2.4 docs
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site%3Awww.python.org+inurl%3A2%5C. 4+intitle%3Apickle
What do you mean hasn't been implemented?
Anyway, the docs.python.org search is easier to type and requires less google-fu.. searching for "pickle site:docs.python.org" works great.
