I opened a thread about a two weeks ago on desktop search engines.
My major requirement was the indexing of a large amount of pdf and a
lesser amount of ps files.
Strigi failed. None of the search results referred to either pdf or ps
files. I didn't bother investigating this and purged strigi.
Currently I'm short of time, but I hope I can post some positive results
of the much awaited beagle experiments in the near future.
