hi guys,

I've just release v 0.4 of the Heron Search engine - its kinda OO but not
very much, written in perl and using Template Toolkit - it does fuzzy
phrase matching and is fairly extensible.

Hopefully I plan to add better phrase matching (the indexer can get a tad
confused when words in a phrase are seperated by too many spaces or html
tags), and possibly other magic.

you can find heron at http://droogs.org/heron/ where there is a demo
search engine that runs on an index of the autodia site.

hope bath and surrounding area is having nice weather - cornwall was
closed all week for TV news presenters to ask every person in the whole
county how moving the Queen Mothers funeral was, while repeating footage of the
wake and cortege and lying in state over and over.

A.
