It wasn't in December.
My complaint about the new archives is that the default's 10 threads
per page. So I went to Feb and then Jan and expanded them to 200
threads (the max) and searched (the page not the "db") for
"dnsmasq".
Thankfully Feb had 104 threads (or "discussions") and Jan had 125 so
they were all on one page.
Agreed. The fancy HTML formatting is a waste of space, especially as
the list Guidelines discourage posting in HTML.
This was the thread:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproje
ct.org/thread/XSEPSJI4ZPNVTPJIUCDS2LLOLHGUSAUU/
If I search the list for "dnsmasq" via the search box, I get
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/search?q=dnsmasq&page=1&...
t=users%40lists.fedoraproject.org&sort=date-desc
and neither of your two dnsmasq Jan threads appear. Also the search
results' page only displays 10 emails and it's unchangeable. (I've
never used the previous archive format's search function.)
In fact I was searching for references to virbr0, which I did ask about
in December in relation to VirtualBox. That's the URL that Samuel came
up with, but my search on the subject line didn't find it. Clearly the
archiving system needs work.
