[Zope-Annce] TextIndexNG V 0.11 released

[Andreas Jung]

I am pleased to announce the release of TextIndexNG V 0.10.
TextIndexNG is a pluggable index for the ZCatalog that
enhances the full text indexing capabilities of Zope 
by providing the following features:

  - support for document converters 

  - stemmer support for 12 languages

  - similarity search (soundex, metaphone support)
    (not fully integrated)

  - NEAR search (including phrase search)

  - new query parser

  - extended stop word support

  - Thesauri (planned)

  - word normalization

  - unicode support

  - new 'test' tab for interactive testing


Changes: 

  - refactored internal forward and backward index into seperated module
    making the TextIndexNG module much more cleaner and cute

  - SimilaritySearch now working

  - rewrote main loop of vocabularies to create and store wordIds in C
    gaining a significant performance boost. 

  - CVS moved to Sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/textindexng)

  - License issues clearified



Requirements:

  TextIndexNG currently runs only on the Zope trunk but not
  with Zope 2.5.X (some tweaks are required to install it
  under 2.5.X)



(Limited) documentation is available from:

   http://www.zope.org/Members/ajung/TextIndexNG/wiki


The sources of TextIndex are available from:
