That's not web-based, although it would be easy enough to wrap some perl
around it and call it a search engine.  Or we could have ht://dig crawl
our site.  I don't know if it's worth the effort though.  A minority of
our users even read the list, most of the few that are going to do more
than randomly troll the archives are probably handy enough with grep.

In "The Future" when hcoop has a vast administrative intranet with reams
of documentation and corporate memos, then perhaps we should have various
sitesearch options.  (the wiki is already searchable through moin.cgi)
