Then run another crawl on the same sites a week or so later. Diff the segments and allow users to search on changes within the search domain. Interesting concept, but I think it would be better implemented as a variant of de-duplication, rather than segment content manipulation. -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki <>< ___. ___ ___ ___ _ _ __ [__ || __|__/|__||\/| Information Retrieval, Semantic Web ___|||__|| \| || | Embedded Unix, System Integration http://www.sigram.com Contact: info at sigram dot com

Relief is on the way. Fine folks at houxou.com have sponsored the development of a brand-new SegmentMerger + slicer, and decided to donate it to the project - big thanks! I'm running some final tests, and will commit it today/tomorrow. -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki <>< ___. ___ ___ ___ _ _ __ [__ || __|__/|__||\/| Information Retrieval, Semantic Web ___|||__|| \| || | Embedded Unix, System Integration http://www.sigram.com Contact: info at sigram dot com
Merging segments
Hello, So the last discussion on merging segments was back in Jan. Has there been any progress in this direction? What would be the benefit of being able merge segments? Would being able to merge segments open up new functionality options or is merging just a convience? Also, what's the estimate for how involved merge functionality development is? Regards, - Chris
