Hi. Thank you for your reply. We will probably start looking at migrating from MySQL to Postgres, since it seems like that is much better way to go. Looking forward to the full-text search documentation.

There is also a sizable bug which prevents it from working on MySQL in RT 4.0.0, which we hope to resolve quickly enough to also land in RT 4.0.1. > We are using MySQL 5.0 The updated documentation will also make clear that as MySQL does not include built-in full-text search capabilities, we rely on the external Sphinx FTS tool. Unfortunately, the SphinxSE engine which allows us to make FTS queries from within MySQL requires recompiling MySQL. You can find complete instructions on how to do this at http://sphinxsearch.com/docs/2.0.1/sphinxse-installing.html - Alex
