Well. What is better - to use a search library which is already available but 
not perfect (but surely faster than what we have now) or to wait for a 
completely new search engine which might never come?
Trevor, I do not want to offend you. It's not your fault that you have been 
ill. But I hope you understand that I would like to see a new search engine 
soon.
