They're calling it Intermedia now ... http://www.oracle.com/intermedia/
I have yet to meet an Oracle customer who likes it.
I think there's a lot of agreement that this is an area where Postgres
could use some work. I know Oleg Bartunov has done some interesting
work with Postgres and the search engine at the Russian portal site
"Rambler" ... http://www.rambler.ru/ . Oleg, could you talk a bit about
what you guys did?
If there's interest in spinning up a separate project to sit outside the
database, a la Intermedia or Verity, we'd be happy to sponsor such a
thing on our GreatBridge.org project hosting site (CVS, bug tracking,
mail lists, etc.)
Regards,
Ned
