Dear Alexander F. Avdonkin, Kir Kolyshkin, Igor Sukhih,
I want to contribute to this great open source search engine. I think it's
a great idea. I think it has similarities with Google, though, probably the big
difference is the database engine behind it and Google's clustering. I have been
admiring Google & studying its research paper.
Unfortunately, I am just a perl programmer and beginner in C/C++.
And, I have been experimenting making Crawler with Perl, as I know Google made
its Crawler with Python.
May be I can contribute by trying Aspseek's Crawler and IR. I think its IR
needs to be improved a little bit if you try to query 'www.aspseek.com.sg' on
both www.aspseek.com.sg & google,
then you will know what I mean.
And, I have looked & printed the source codes and it gives me
a spinning headache. May be (it's just an idea), if we have like
a flow chart or the macro algorithm of Aspseek, it will help the potential
contributors (programmers) to contribute into the program's hard core
more quickly. I think if the programmers community can receive this
positively, AspSeek may be able to become the "super search" Search engine,
just like Linux does. (well just a wish).
Anyway, thank you all for such generous contribution to the world of Open
Source.
Sincerely,
Mulyo
