Or should multiple indexes be combined into one large index?
http://www.rectangular.com/pipermail/kinosearch/2006-July/004847.html


To use multiple indexes, I think I would need to:
- add indexer and updater parameters for web(s), file type(s), and index
location(s)
- figure out which index(s) to update when a file changes
- make the searcher accept parameters for web(s), file type(s), and =
index
location(s)
- make a parent searcher that forwards queries to appropriate children =
based
on=20
  web, file type, etc, and then combines the results (modeled on KS's
MultiSearcher? )
- maybe make a parent indexer (and updater) that forwards files to=20
  appropriate children based on web, file type, etc

Should this be managed within KS or in the wiki plugin/addon code?
I'm more familiar with the latter, but the former might be more widely
useful.
Or should I wait and try to do this with the Lucy?

I hope to have time to start on this work in the next few weeks.
Any suggestions for related things to do while I'm inside the code?
Thank you for your time and consideration.
