People don't like it... I've been trying to install mnoGoSearch into fi.php.net, to see what kind of search engine it is. The main problems are: 1. Indexing takes a lot of time (even with dedicated machine and indexing using file://usr/local/phpweb) 2. There's no way to exclude print/printwn directories _serverside_, since robots.txt doesn't allow wildcards like "Disallow: */print/*". Is there any way to alter the PHP.net structure to have printable manual pages in /print/manual/en/etc. and /printwn/manual/en/etc. Using this method robots.txt could be used for denying indexing robots into /print/* and /printwn/*. 3. Indexing years and years of Events data, see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=18508 -- Toni Viemerö | http://selfdestruct.net "The ones who dont do anything are always the ones who try to pull you down."
