Hoi, I met Rob Savoye of OLPC and GNASH fame at FOSDEM. Rob received a lot of attention as a OLPC developer. Rob had one of the first systems with him. It was really cool to hold one of these early systems and, I can really imagine myself using it as an E-book reader :)
The reason why I write about this meeting is that Rob mentioned that he is also involved in a search engine that will become available under a GPL license. Rob expects that the software will debut around October. He is looking for people with an interest in working on such a system.. If you are interested .. rob at lulu dot com.
Thanks, GerardM
