Having a local search seems worthwhile ... Since the index files aren't guaranteed to be cross-platform, that would mean building them on the mirrors, which looks like it can be done with an rsynced html tree and swish.conf. Then if perl.apache.org/search isn't hardcoded, the mirror could just install the search templates ... best regards, randy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
