The name of the poster is not indexed currently. Only message body & subject are. I believe it’s not really needed. I’m pondering if I should make a top x of posters page, but for now it’s more important to get a bigger set of past usenet messages. Regards, Ward On 2008-02-25 20:42:22 +0100, Aria S.

I get only two hits for the word “duck”. 😉 At any rate, I can see how something like this could potentially evolve into something useful, although I agree with Eric H. that you’ve got some work in front of you to make it better (for some purposes) than either blade or the Google G. interface. – Regards, John W. ---

Ah, I guess in these days of google to expect full-text search by default. I know I definitely search the archive by name often – Neukirchen, Fernandez, I’m often looking for a certain someone’s work. ---
