The only point in involving Spotlight would be to have a common interface that works, with a common set of configurable options like where to search and where not. And of course the automatic "only-what's-changed-updating" part. That sort of thing is usually the most expensive aspect to develop, and what keeps me from sitting down and writing something myself. For now :) > I'm not aware of a finished tool that does it. No, I haven't found anything either. A bit surprising in a way, it sounds like a tool that could be quite useful for distribution maintainers and OS developers.
