Hi there,

I am involved with a project to put 30-50 weekly newspapers online
in Ireland.  We are currently using htdig for searching and it's
working great, however I have a proposition..

There are a few features that are missing in htdig that we would
really like to have, these are (in no particular order):
Exact phrase searching, The ability to index documents on the
filesystem rather than through the web server, the ability to
date documents by some tag rather than the date stamp, and
a few other things that I've probably forgotten.

My question is this, would you consider taking money to add
further functionality to htdig - assuming that any extra functionality
added remains GPL'd? (I'm not interested in owning the code,
merely in having the features I need.) and If so, how could
I go about negotiating a price?

I realise that this can be a touchy subject with free software,
but again, It would suit me fine for any development that I
have done to be GPL'd itself (assuming that other people feel
it is useful.)

Anyways, any thoughts you have would be appreciated,

Best,

John.
