| Nov 12, 2010 at 4:51 | comment | added | Nathan Osman Mod | @Oli: The files turned out to be XML files, so I'm thinking of Qt here. | |
| Nov 11, 2010 at 13:31 | comment | added | Oli Mod | The problem with that is its usefulness comes from being searchable in a fuzzy sense... We could ship Lucene (or other) with pre-built indexes but I think it's probably harder than I'm making it sound. | |

| Sep 16, 2010 at 5:23 | comment | added | Nathan Osman Mod | Keep in mind that the data is provided as an SQL file, so the CD would need to include tools to view the data. | |
