No prob.

Pick up a copy of O'Reilly's book Google Hacks.  If you use open-source,
odds are you also use Google for support reasons.  The book has a lot of
good tips to get after the data you need.

Sorry, it was actually Johnny Hughes who explained how to search the
archives.  He wrote:
"No search engine except ... download the archives as text and use
something like gedit."

John would have said 'something like grep' :-)

Then Jeff really solved the problem by explaining how to make Google
search the archive.

Thanks, Jeff, that works just fine.
