Re: Archive link at the end of each post?



Hi dudes,
the idea is not bad at all but what do you think to add a full
reference to the message???

http://lists.debian.org/$LISTNAME/<year>/$LISTNAME-<year><month>/msg<num>.html

exactly like they are stored in the archive.

IMO it can make few things easier specially for newbie that doesn't have experience in searching trough the archive and for people joining the list in the middle of an interesting thread, and even when a msg on an old thread pop up after some time
and you have already deleted the old msgs.
It will be some sort of click and browse back since there is that nice "previous by thread"
link at the end of the page....

just my 2 cents

Regards
Fabio

Hey folks,

Someone in -user-portuguese has proposed this, I'm mostly relaying the
idea.

What do you think of adding a line like:

List Archive: http://lists.debian.org/$LISTNAME/

To the list signature that's appended on each post, at least for the
user lists, like -user(-*)?  It would be much easier to the users
themselves and people who hang around on these lists helping newcomers.

Any objections?
