Re: [A/S] Possible New Website

Hmmm, I tried "1973 excella"  and didn't get back anything.  Then I
tried just "excella", still nothing.  I'll try again in the morning.

I used this link to search from  "http://www.tompatterson.com/wgall.html"

I don't see a way of grabbing by Year/Model of trailer, I think this
would be a often requested query.  Do I need to access a specific directory?

I was thinking about the following capabilities for lookups:

With some keyword associations similar items could be retrieved when no
exact match occurs.  "1973 Excella" might return a link to "1974
Excella" or a "1973 Soveriegn" for example.  another item of interest
would be specific types of repairs.  A lot of this requires a bit of
work in the metadata aspects (data describing the files, keywords and
such), without an effort put into adding some identifiers for cross indexing

Another of my interests is spatial data queries. Looking up things
related to location.  For Example, where are the closest Airstream
friendly RV parks to where I live, or Bone yards, or Dealers, etc.

These are the sorts of queries that can be queried from a simple
database.   Once there were a stable database in place, any new
additions could be added with a strict Web FORM that would collect the
voluntary info from those that want to provide it.

Huh?  Why offlist?
