Hi all,

Regarding the (web based) search interface for mailman archives that I 
asked about earlier ... decided to try mnogosearch.

Indexed the archives of a list with 3700 html documents... it took about 
18 minutes ... mostly http retrieval.
(have included the last line and the output from time)

The search mechanism seems pretty good. It is fast, caches the documents 
(like google) and has an advanced search interface for boolean searches 
etc.

Very rough installation steps on RHL (documentation seems incomplete) :

Thanks,
sriad
