Is Discourse easily searchable from the outside? I was looking up transaction behavior in Postgrsql last night. I came across such an old school mailing list. The utility was that it appeared rather high in the search results.

The OpenStreetMap community decided to go the discourse route after a review of requirements and options available.

In my experience, Discourse forums do appear high in search results as well. The added benefit is that they have a good UI to read old threads, unlike mailing lists.

discuss.python.org comes up in my search results, sure.
