As a matter of fact, we did a quick CMF demo that has the content of the zope list, zope-dev, and many of the other zope.org lists, and the comp.lang.python list for the past few years. The catalog searches are very very fast, i can't recall if the demo was set up with some interesting canned CMF topics, but the things works well.
The picture isn't altogether rosy - the process of loading the objects was arduous. On the other hand, the exercise (actually, a subsequent one with simpler article objects) served as the basis for tuning the cataloging process, and may have helped it get a lot better.
If i have time next week, i'll see if we have the corpus online somewhere. (The lists were complete up to a few months ago.) Eventually we'd like to be incrementally stuffing new messages into the database as they arrive.
Ken, What's the UI like into this? If it's good, and you'd be willing to ship us the code and pre-loaded data, I think arms could be twisted here to host and maintain thos in favour of our curent Lotus Notes archives. Let me know what you think :-) Chris
