Google do let you search though.  You can search through FreeBSD-* or a
specific list.  You can do all those fun advanced Google search
functions.  In fact it's not a bad setup really.

Do we really need it considering Google?  I know it's not nice to be
dependant on another company, after all look at what happened to Deja,
but maybe this is an area where we should think about it.  It should be
fairly simple to write something that would process a query and create a
Google URL from it.
