Hmmm, iirc, gmane.org wanted me to authorize in order to be able to
post though I do not know what is the present policy.

I do not experience any delay with the http://www.mail-archive.com/
archive, although it is possible to put e.g. htdig search engine on
haskell.org (there are patches for integration with mailman and I put
them on few sites.)

Besides that, one can always use something like:

'gtk2hs site:www.haskell.org//pipermail/haskell/' as a search term in
Google to restrict hits to e.g. 'haskell' mailing list.

Sincerely,
Gour
