in reply to Making Perl Monks accessible to Search Engines

While it does not directly address the issue of Search Engines indexing PerlMonks (and IIRC there was a good reason for not allowing it), several Monks are making considerable efforts towards "keywording" nodes. Please see Keyword Nodelet / Tagging documentation and Keyword Nodelet for more. Furthermore, at least one of us has been working on small utilities to aid in this effort. ;-)

HTH,

    Unfortunately, with robots.txt being global, this is pointless. However, the engines that power Google, Yahoo, and the other majors are well known, and it would be beneficial IMHO to allow them to do what they do. I'm glad to see that some of the pieces are there, thanks to your efforts, planetscape. :D
