[GSBN] Searching GSBN

[Bill Christensen]

It's actually quite easy to use your standard search engines to search 
GSBN.  The archives are crawled by all of them.

Interested in posts on foundations?  Try searching on "GSBN Foundations" 
and you get:


https://www.google.com/search?q=GSBN+Foundations

In other words, just preface your search term or phrase with "GSBN".  
Your results will of course depend on how well you pick your search terms.


Last I checked the only viable search engine for Mailman lists was 
difficult enough to set up that I didn't finish it in the time I'd given 
myself (and probably then some).  I haven't checked back in a long 
while.  Since there's a functional public workaround to having what 
would essentially be a private search function, being executed by 
companies whose existence centers on data searching, I see no reason to 
revisit this.
