As you know, I've made a few comments on that and having a daemon around does open the door to realtime reindexing, but I don't think that rewrite does that yet. I don't think it would be difficult to allow the librarian interface to wake it up sooner than the update frequency set in systempreferences, would it? This has been discussed over on the koha list and one case where realtime reindexing would really help is when authorities are being added at cataloguing-time. At the moment, some librarians are changing their workflow to suit Koha, which seems backwards to me. Thanks, -- MJ Ray (slef), member of www.software.coop, a for-more-than-profit co-op.
