Belay my last question.  I have a series of questions regarding the
current site and issues that impacts selecting a new search engine. 

Does the webserver have a database engine running on it?  Does the
webserver have PHP?  Will it?  Can it? 

How does the mail archive and search work?  Is it home grown or is it some
third party software?  Are there docs in existence? 

Hom does the current web search work?  Is it home grown or is it some
third pacty software?  Are there docs for it?

I heard a rumor that the current search system has become unmanageable.
Can someone in the know speak on that issue?

As I understand rumblings on chat, folks aren't terribly dissatisfied. 
They do want a stronger boolean syntax and date functionality.  They want
sortability on the results.
 
I could answer these questions for myself if I were allowed to poke
around.  Could someone vouch for me for an account on hub?

Thank you,
Jason C. Wells
