Hello, There's a FIXME note in documentation.xml about the URL of list archives. Even though we don't have a page with direct link to the archives, this patch attempts to help things out by giving the list of mailing list, each of them linking to their archives... Thoughts?

While it is a good thing to fix the FIXME, I don't think linking to the archives as they are is particularly helpful. That's because there is no search method available, and you won't browse through all months' archives to look out for your particular problem if you don't know where to look anyway. What I'd do is to use google on that site only, I came up with something ugly like http://www.google.com/search?aq=f&hl=de&q=%2Bhttp%3A%2F%2Flists.mplayerhq.hu%2Fpipermail%2Fmplayer-users%2F to search for things only in the pipermail/mplayer-users domain. But I'm not sure this link really fits the documentation either.. We could of course create a page on mplayerhq that contains a google search box.. But I'm not sure that is wanted. So why was the search on mplayerhq deactivated again? Lost functionality, porting problem, too high system load, ..? Sebastian

Apply, it's better than what we currently have. Diego
