Hi all, I'd like to draw your attention to two significant (and possibly related) search module bugs that are leading to widespread corruption of our search indexes: Missing nodes in search index: http://drupal.org/node/139537 The problem is missing content. You can't find a node with the search index if it doesn't get indexed for some reason. Duplicate entries: http://drupal.org/node/143160 The problem is duplicated entries in the search index which bloats the index and makes potential upcoming query optimizations impossible. Neither of these have been diagnosed and the source of the bugs have not been identified. If anyone is interested in the search code (and there is a LOT of cool stuff in there, very well worth looking at) is invited to jump in and help us out with these efforts. -Robert

Ohw! What a shocker.. What will now happen with Drupal 6? <snip>

Only good things! Drupal already works just fine on PHP 5, I've been using it that way for ages, as have many others. We've been holding back from using PHP 5's complete bag of tricks because some users might not have it yet. Now we can let loose with the XML-parsing goodness and other fun toys. :) Susan (HedgeMage) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGRBr+vWyNbJGZcawRAsiBAJ0X01PtcXXlOYLDD23S1UtBc3cQDACdG2Z5 4buuS33w06LPU+OLWCqfHd4= =I7TJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Drats. I only saw the post's date just now ...

Yeah, he should have at least mentioned all the polite, courteous drivers in Montreal. That would've been an instant tip-off. ;)
