mailing list archives
This is just an idea that occurred to me while searching the archives via google.
A large number of entries in the google results from the list are useless
because they are the 'debian-user Jun 2006 by thread' monthly summaries.
Because each monthly summary is simply a list of the thread titles, it leads to
false hits for my keywords, for instance 'dvd mplayer menu' hits all the monthly
summaries, even when there isn't actually a msg referencing dvds and menus and
mplayer.
Judicious use of the robots.txt file on the mail archive server would be a
simple way to remove the summaries from the search engines, for instance
something like:
Disallow: /**/threads.html
would probably do it.
