I desperately need an indexer for help documents in Yelp.  Yelp
currently has two search backends: one based on Beagle and one
that basically greps everything every time you search.  Beagle
seems dead, and the other backend was never really intended to
be the way forward.

I had hoped to talk to somebody at the Summit about this, but
the right people weren't there.

I get the impression that the focus is more on data storage
than indexing these days.  I respect what the Tracker folks
are trying to do, but I just need a good indexer to enable
full-text search in Yelp.

Would somebody be available to have an IRC meeting with me
about this?
