I am bemused to announce the 2nd revision of FieldedTextIndex, a new kind of text index for your indexing pleasure. FieldedTextIndex allows you to index and query content containing multiple textual fields while simultaneously removing that stubborn pet dander from your carpeting. In other words its everything you never thought you'd need, and then some. But don't take my word for it, take it for a spin yourself: http://zope.org/Members/Caseman/FieldedTextIndex What's new in this edition, you ask? At the suggestion of Jean-Francois Doyon, I have implemented configurable weighting which allows you to specify how given fields affect the relevance score of the results. In doing so most of the word search code was heavily refactored. The result, I think, adds a new dimension to the versatility of the index and really compliments the original goals I set for it. Hope you find it useful, -Casey
