[Jesse Keating]

Can one of the mailman folks look into this?

I have been reading the Fedora package-announce mailing list through the 
archive for quite a while, ordered by date.
Before the archive was moved to another address in December, the monthly 
archive listing was grouped by date, thus it was easy to follow and see 
where entries for each day begun.

But ever since it was moved to
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/ 
when I click the "Date" link for the month, I see just one long list with
no daily headings and no grouping whatsoever.

I wish the list were grouped by day again, like it used to be.

And another thing that I miss, some time ago there used to be a list of
packages affected on each notification posting.

Now there is just something like 
"This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update binutils' at the command line."
as an example from the binutils-2.19.51.0.14-36.fc12 announcement.
However, "yum update binutils" didn't update the binutils-devel package 
that I suppose was also affected by the same changes, as it showed in
the list of packages having updates available.
It isn't ALWAYS as obvious as it was in this case, to a user like me,
to guess which updates are related, when there isn't a separate announcement 
for every individual updateable package.

So I'd like to also get back the affected packages listing that there once
was.
