I believe Greenstone (the new software behind the scenes at gutenberg.org) allows pretty precise sorting of returns on various conditions.
What? Who installed Greenstone without my noticing it?
Errr, oops. Dang, sorry about that. Could have sworn I heard a bit ago that you guys were putting it in and the new site (gutenburg.org) sure looks like Greenstone.
iBiblio runs the Greenstone search engine, which we link to. It's not bad, but takes a long time to re-index the site (and doesn't do all the filetypes), and is not updated too regularly. We link to it from the gutenberg.org/gutenberg.net pages, as well as Yahoo & Google (which, similarly, we don't run: they just index us as part of their service).
Sorry about that. This is exactly why I usually keep my mouth shut about these types of things ;).
Not at all - it's often not too clear what's "ours" (as in stuff we run) and what's not ours, without detailed reading. -- Greg
