Permalinks embedded on mailing list messages
Does anyone know of a way to get these? My current workflow involves Googling for the skimage mailing list, finding the right link (it's not the top hit), hunting down the right message, and then two clicks and a copy-paste to get the link. Nabble provides them by default (much as GitHub does), and they are very useful, since mailing list messages are often quite shareable. I'd even advocate moving to Nabble if there's no way to do this.

Unfortunately, it looks like this is almost impossible. We should consider moving our forum, but I also cannot find a way to export Google Groups data, which is a bit distressing. Any tips appreciated. Stéfan
Holy moly! What happened to Google's "Data Liberation Front"? I guess this illustrates just how neglected GGroups is. I'm assuming your Googling skills are at least as good as mine, but this is the best I could come up with in a short time: http://saturnboy.com/2010/03/scraping-google-groups/ I don't read PHP, but the code looks simple, and might be correspondingly simple to port to Python. Uploading to a new service (e.g. Nabble) might not be trivial, though. =\ On Fri, Dec 5, 2014 at 11:53 PM, Stefan van der Walt <stefan@sun.ac.za> wrote:

If I understand [messages between the lines from my colleagues at Google] correctly, Google Groups will be available on Google Takeout sometime in the near-ish future. Let's give it a while and see where it goes. Stéfan
