  Description     : Zope product providing indexes managable via the ZMI

ManagableIndex can mean different things for different people. For a
content manager, it brings flexible field, keyword and efficient range
indexes managable via the ZMI to
 * combine values from different sources, ignoring irrelevant value
   and transforming values in an inadequate form,
 * control acquisition and prevent acquired values to be indexed
 * ignore stop-terms, normalize terms and check types
..
For a developer, ManagableIndex provides a framework for index
definition, improving on PluginIndexes. It provides for managability,
automatically and intelligently handles unindexing when an object is
reindexed and implements and, or and range queries (for not too complex
indexes).


* I'm packaging this product as dependency of Zenoss (#361253).

Cheers,
