Hello,

I am wondering if text search is actually on the official road map and
if so when it will be available. If not, would it make sense to start
a google code project to do our own implementation?  I am thinking of
something simple and light without the need of lots of jar. I think it
is quite some work and it would be worthless if GAE will have this
feature in the near future. Also I guess it can be implemented more
efficiently on google side reusing all the infrastructure that they
have already in place.

Cheers,
Toby
