Branching off from the various discussions of the FFML's current woes 
and what items need improvement, I have a technical question or two, in 
interest of doing an initial estimate on a scope of work:  does anyone 
know just big the (uncompressed) FFML archives are, in total?  And if 
those archives include the old FFML, current FFML, and any/all of the 
"refuge" lists that were set up during the Interregnum?
	As for creating a search *engine*, well, that's a heck of a chore to 
ask someone else to do, and I know *my* coding skills aren't up to it. 
But I understand there *are* prepackaged search engines out there, some 
even designed for handling ML archives.  I could try doing a bit of 
research....
