If I look at the results at http://search.debian.org/?q=itp I roll my eyes and 
go away, sorry. As much as I'm impressed^wsurprised the search does something 
again, I'm totally unimpressed by those search results.
 
From looking at the summaries at http://search.debian.org/?q=itp one could 
believe that "ITP" is about selecting a server close to Australia Austria 
Bulgaria Germany Hong Kong Indonesia... ;-)

yeah.


cheers,
	Holger, who is impressed by people pointing out something "is there" when 
apperarantly people have problems locating that information. To me it seems 
that this information is presented poorly, not that those people searching 
are doing something wrong.
