News entry Sep 06, 2006. Project news Despite that the news page is not getting updated frequently, the work on 0.9.7 goes on. Most of this time was dedicated implementing support for multiple per-document attributes instead of pre-0.9.7 hard-coded group and timestamp couple. However, there also was a number of different search time optimizations. Combined with an option to store per-document info externally, which improves indexing time, this should make 0.9.7 the fastest version so far. Besides that, some R&D is also being done in the area of implementing query language and improving relevance ranking. These are far from final at this point, and might not even make it into next release, but preliminary results seem promising. As you probably already noticed, the site also just had a minor update, with most notable change being the PayPal donations button. Many thanks to the guy who helped me with that one, you know who you are. I plan to release 0.9.7 later this month, so stay tuned.
