* Because Fossil is a [./concepts.wiki | distributed version control
system], project members can search your forum archive while
disconnected from the network where the central Fossil instance
runs. Your past discussions are potentially just as valuable as a
wiki document or checkin comment: there is no good reason why you
should have to wait to get back on the Internet or back to the
office before you can search for past posts.
* When you search the forum archives via the Fossil web interface,
you get only one result for each matching post. When you search a
mailing list's archives using a standard web search engine, you
might get a result from the project site's own mail archive plus
one from Nabble, one from Gmane, one from The Mail Archive...
* Because forum posts are normal Fossil artifacts, you can interlink
them with other Fossil artifacts using short internal links: link
to forum threads from a [./tickets.wiki | ticket], link to a wiki
document from a forum post, etc. These links are internal and
managed by Fossil itself, so links never become invalid simply
because your third-party forum software or mailing list search
