The Spotlight technology in Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and later is an important part
of the system integration in OpenOffice.org for Mac OS X. It is implemented as a
plugin that works for both X11 and native AQUA versions of OOo for MAC OS X.

With Spotlight integration, it is possible to nearly instantly search for OOo
documents on Mac OS X, based on filename, contents of the document, and
attributes (like author of the document)

I have a fully working implementation that is a derivative of LGPL licensed
NeoLight plugin.

I have also successfully experimented with integrating the source in OOo build.

I have been in contact with the original author of the code (Ed Peterlin) it's
ok for him to put the code to OOo CVS, as long as the license (LGPL) and
copyright (Ed Peterlin) are not changed.

Martin: Could we integrate this code to OOo CVS in a similar way as mozilla,
berkeleydb and fondu are integrated? This would probably mean that we would have
a separate module like "ooo_spotlight_plugin" for this.
