We could even paste a > google search on this site into the archive's html pages. I'm fine with relying on Google for this. This worked just fine for Andrew's archive, so I see no reason why it wouldn't work for the new archive. We can help Google find the archive by just linking to it, from our search page of course, but also maybe from our index page in one of the news item related to the new mailing-list, and our FAQ needs an update as well. I'll add a link from my home page too, until Google gets it, and will make sure to use the new archive for references I post to the LKML for now on. I just updated the Freshmeat lm_sensors record. We may additionally ask Andrew to put some link on the old archive, if not for Google, it will certainly help the users. I'm confident that Google will find the new archive soon enough anyway. Shall we bet? Before I go to the Guadec [1] it should be done. [1] http://2005.guadec.org/ -- Jean Delvare
