I've proposed adding support for semi-automatic linking to external
documents, based on a simple tagging model, a couple of times, e.g.
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-May/280751.html
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-May/280755.html
http://effbot.org/zone/idea-seealso.htm
but as I mentioned last time
iirc, [I] only got "wikis rulez" and "enough with that comp.sci crap"
responses.
which makes me think that some people still are more interested in com-
plaining than using the stuff that's actually out there...
