I was just thinking about this today. I used it this morning to search for
'ipsec'. I was a bit annoyed that you could not select multiple lists, I
wasn't sure if it was -devel or -user. Also the return results had all
sorts of quoted HTML markup!
The HTML markup is gone now, it's much easier to read the result.. but
perhaps some context could be put in the search results so you can select
the right one.
There also seems to be something a bit wrong. I just tried searching devel
for 'apt' but I didn't egt any hits.. perhaps this is that Netscape forms
bug though..
We have alot of CPU power on master now, would it be possible to use it
for more enhanced queries somehow? The lists are a great resource but it
can be hard to find stuff in them :<
