Sort of like a wiki-within-newsgroup in effect. E.g., "Tim Peters" site:python.org gets a lot of interesting stuff. Likewise Martelli, though the volume is daunting either way (140,000 & 32,400 resp ;-) What about "python-newsgroup-faq" site:python.org? If we avoid the tag line in all but finalized posts, that plus some additional search-narrowing via google would probably be pretty effective. But this is a social engineering problem more than technical ;-) BTW, would such a thing appropriately be defined in a process PEP?
