openCreate a searchable archive for chirp-devel
0%
Description
There's a searchable archive for chirp_users, but there is none for chirp_devel. A new searchable archive for chirp_devel would be useful so that developers - especially new developers - can search through what's been asked and answered before, rather than repeating the same old questions on the mailing list. It also provides a history of development discussions and potentially design decisions.
Adding a new list to mail-archive.com (the archiving system used for chirp_users) is very straightforward. See:
https://www.mail-archive.com/faq.html#newlist
Importing all of the existing archives is also very straightforward. Given that the mailing list is on mailman, all that's required is to send the mail-archive.com support team a URL once the archive exists. See:

It would also be nice to get DuckDuckGo and other search engines to index the pipermail archives. That doesn't seem to be happening currently.
