Andrew,

I've made the updates suggested above - thanks for the feedback.

I can see the logical next step is to have the html surrounding each
page also include all the current index entries that point to that
page, along with a form to let people add new entries for anything on
that page that should be indexed but currently isn't. I should also
let people add any comments to the page - that would also make it
easier for these articles to show up as meaningful results in a google
search.

RIght now I'm hanging around the house waiting for my wife to say it's
time to head to hospital to deliver our 2nd kid, so I might start on
that feature but can't guarantee to complete. Any volunteers with some
web dev chops like to help out?

BTW I did experiment with having each page have an OCRed version of
the scan, but the results were consistently too much like line noise
to be any use as google juice.

Regards

Jonno
