Обсуждение: Unable to do a mailing list proper search
Good afternoon all, I am trying to search the mailing list archives for the phrase "list all role privileges", and I would like to return onlythe matches containing that exact phrase, and nothing else. Yet nothing works. No matter what I enter, I get all pages that contain any or all of the words, whether or not they are are concurrent to eachother, or spread throughout the page. Sure, the results include all pages with the exact phrase I want, but searchingthrough all the unwanted pages is frustratingly tedious. Can anyone tell me what the secret is to obtaining the desired search results? Enclosing a phrase in quotes works with mostmailing list archives, with most search engines, and in queries. So surely there is a way to perform a similar searchon the PostgreSQL archives? Thanks, Craig Sent - Gtek Web Mail

Why? The most advanced open source projects depend heavily on outside sources. PostgreSQL is managed by git, borrowing from the Linux kernel development tools; one web site mirror is run on RackSpace; there's always a lot of reliance on uplinks and remote services. No point replicating what already exists! Leveraging (there, that's today's buzzword out of the way) Google Search rather than building your own is a smart move. Python used to have their own search facility, but it was recently pulled out in favour of Google (see http://www.python.org/search/ for example) because Google offer more functionality and faster response.
