RE: local search support

This has a huge drawback that google has to index your pages first. And usually it takes 1 month for a new site before your pages get on google. Also google will tend not to index mirror sites. Results on mirror sites will probably return fewer results than on limiting the search of google on www.php.net. What I want to say is that if you do a search on google for: Sybase site:gr.php.net Sybase site:www.php.net You will get two different results (not a lot of answers on gr.php.net) Give it a try...

This move was necessary in order to combat excessive load on the www.php.net site itself. --Wez.
