I didn't see this, but that is definitely a killer feature. If you aren't using PHP, Zope, or whatever, that's utterly awesome. I would still like to see us move forward with both options. Different search engines give different results, and I'd like to see us offer as much support as possible. We're going to find bugs in both, I'm sure. :-) ==ml -- Michael Lucas mwlucas@FreeBSD.org, mwlucas@BlackHelicopters.org http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/q/Big_Scary_Daemons Absolute BSD: http://www.AbsoluteBSD.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
