The "public" part is not to embarrass posters, but recognition that
there are likely other people 'out there' (or arriving in-future if they
care to read the archives) experiencing a similar problem. (hence need
for descriptive Subject lines - isn't the most difficult task in
programming 'choosing names'?)
well, one of two, along with cache invalidation and off-by-one errors
(according to the wags).
I do agree with this, but mailman (2) archives aren't particularly
useful for searching, as they're organized in monthly chunks and you
have to keep clicking around - this list doesn't have a search engine as
it's not converted to be one of the mailman 3 lists.
There are supposed to be some search engine incantations to make this
better. I find this one works, though I can never actually remember it
and have to go hunting again each time... picking a random-ish subject
line from this list in the past:
site:mail.python.org inurl:Python-list multiplication
I don't know that we publicise such methods (there are probably others).
