Hi All! As we have a few new members, I thought I better make a "where we are
up to" post.
I am afraid that the roll-out of search is taking a bit longer than we would
like. Currently the posted-file search is holding us up, as we have decided to
change some of the underlying infrastructure while we are at it.
Posted files are odd, as they are split in two parts: data and metadata. The
data is stored in a standard file-system. For various reasons, the metadata is
stored in a relational database (RDB) *and* the Zope object database (ZODB).
The underlying change that we are trying to make is moving all the metadata
about files into the RDB.
