I think that it's simply: https://code.ros.org/lurker/search/20380101.000000.00000000@th:.en.html The 20380101 looks to be a default date that's far in the future. I noticed that the same result will come up with the mailing list name added, i.e.: https://code.ros.org/lurker/search/20380101.000000.00000000@ml:ros-users,th:d2ff88fe.en.xml And this might be good to add to the macro even if only the id is required to specify the thread completely--that way by looking at the link you're about to click you can see what list it will be taking you to. So how about: Lurker<> becomes: https://code.ros.org/lurker/search/20380101.000000.00000000@ml:,th:.en.xml Pat On Sun, Feb 6, 2011 at 11:05 AM, Ken Conley wrote: > This does sound useful.  If you can figure out the algorithm/API for expanding > > d2ff88fe > > to > > https://code.ros.org/lurker/search/20380101.000000.00000000@th:d2ff88fe.en.html > > I would be happy to turn it into a macro on our Wiki.  I don't know > enough about Lurker and the URL-generation scheme isn't as obvious as > our other macros (e.g. Youtube, Trac). > >  - Ken > > On Sun, Feb 6, 2011 at 10:54 AM, Patrick Bouffard > wrote: >> It's often the case that for some particular item on the wiki there is >> much more information available in discussions in the mailing lists, >> though it's not practical (or even a good idea) to add all that detail >> to the wiki itself.
