I don't know exactly what Jeremy meant, but I do know that for a while the Google search box on docs.python.org was doing a www.python.org search instead of the intended docs.python.org search.
I fixed this a week or so ago, so the docs.python.org search is now automatic from the front pages of docs.python.org. I still need to do something about adding it to the rest of docs.python.org, though.
I mean that if I go to google.com and type in something related to Python documentation, none of the results are from python.org. They are all from mirrors of python.org + docs.python.org and from places like pydoc.org. In the good old days, I could do a simple search for Python documentation -- just enter the words I was looking for, perhaps with python as an added term -- and the www.python.org results would be in the top 5.
I think that's bad for Python users, because most of the people who do those queries would be best served going to python.org.
Before docs.python.org, when I did the same searches, I always ended up with garbage from mailing list archives -- not real documentation.
