*giggle* I offer tivocommunity and dealdatabase web forums as a counter example; most questions are responded to with "do a search" and two thirds of the search results are posts telling people to do a search! > both have their strong and weak points... what would be nice instead of an > interactive forum, but a bit difficult to implement, would be to create some > kind of parsing program to parse the entire mailing list archives into a > database, then present the database data in 'forum' form for easy searching Most mailing list software has a web interface for the archives of the list, and some provide a searchable interface. Hmm, we have an archive at http://list.linux-vserver.org/archive/vserver/ and http://archives.linux-vserver.org/ I don't see a "search" option there, but I guess we could always make google index the pages and then have a google search option :-) -- rgds Stephen _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
