KS can certainly handle the indexing/search aspect, but it would be  
one tool among several in your toolbox.  You'd also need CPAN::Mini, a  
POD extractor, etc.  I'n fact, for setting up a bare-bones CPAN  
search, extracting the desirable data from all those archives is  
bigger problem up-front problem the fundamental KS stuff.

Later on, tweaking the index and application design so that the  
search's usefulness surpasses search.cpan.org, kobesearch, and site- 
limited Googling becomes the challenge.
