From my point of view of XWiki.org user, sometimes, there are some strange results or no result but I think this is due to the fact that the site content has been changed or the server redeployed and lucene has not indexed everything yet or there has been a problem while indexing. I've already asked several times about it and each time, when people look at my problem, it's OK again because lucene periodically indexes as far as I remember :) But you may speak about something else... > > > For a documentation site it's a bit more problematic since the site > > needs to be relatively clean and when users go to it they should not > > feel it's a mess or a work in progress too much since otherwise this > > feeling will reflect on their feeling for the software.

The loss of digital information meaning also the loss of knowledge and maybe the loss of a part of our history will be one of the challenge in the future (this phrase is too serious so I put a smiley at the end :))... but there is also the case when some info keep going on internet and you would like it to be erased but it's almost impossible :):):) > > Thanks for your time, > > Ricardo > > -- > Ricardo RodrÃguez > Your EPEC Network ICT Team > > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > devs@xwiki.org > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
