Hello Folks,

I often found myself needing a searchable
Bioconductor archive, so I ended up implementing one:

Try it out here:

http://www.liondb.org/biocond

Finding relevant text by searching is notoriously
hard to efficiently implement, the site above uses a
MySQL feature that computes relevance scores of the
words. The results are sorted by the accumulated
relevance scores.

Feel free to comment and send feedback or suggestions.

cheers,

Istvan.
