When you say that Freegle matches search keywords with the key itself,
you mean that only words that appear in the key are used?  So if I
search for "Douglas" then only those keys that contain the string
"Douglas" will be returned, plus those HTML pages that have titles
specified?

Really?  Isn't the key index used by Freenet search engines also saved
into Freenet?  What does that file consist of?  Just the keys
