Maybe these FAQs are good enough in terms of content (I don't know), but if newbies don't know about them and oldies very rarely refer to them then there's a piece missing. > for 'fedora-list', there is https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/ > > one thing that may be lacking is a way to search archives. if there > is a search engine to do this, i have not found it. This was discussed recently. Until shown otherwise, I stand by my theory that the lack of search is due to the list being managed by Mailman. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
