I believe the issue here is that docs.python.org is only the *current*
documentation. www.python.org/doc lists a variety of items which are
not part of the current documentation, e.g.:
* the development documentation
* documentation for previous python versions
* the Python wiki
etc.
None of these are part of the official current documentation, so they're
not on docs.python.org (so that when you search docs.python.org, you
*do* only get the current documentation).
Would it have been better for you if the large link that says
"Browse Current Documentation"
said instead
"Browse and Search Current Documentation"
?
