Great if you're only using the search engine to find the mon homepage. I wouldn't consider not being able to find the project homepage via a search engine a bug. But when doing work with the appliation and trying to find relevant pages which relate to a specific part of the application or some problem, and getting hits for every page with the string "mon" in it, is a nuisance at least and at worst it is a serious detraction from the "usuability" of the application, if one considers the ability to cross-reference documentation for the application part of its usability. _______________________________________________ mon mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
