John states a wonderful goal. Every user will applaud it, and we are
all users for whatever we have not developed ourself.
Is there some way we can reach it but still allow
things to be maintained in a distributed manner? Each site has a difficult time
maintaining it's own documents without worring about all the other sites.
What do the WEB crawlers do?

============================================================================
I commented that I am not aware of any crawlers that are freely available that will
work like glimpse does on a local filesystem. There is a project called 'harvest'
that I have heard of that might be some kind of web crawler.
I encourage all of us to make what ever (often time little) documentation that we
have easy to access for the users. If this means one extra FTP somewhere when
updating the thing, that does not seem like too big of a deal to me.
