Eric Miller and Jack Gilding asked about SWISH-E support for the SCHEME 
and LANG attributes. The way things work now is the simplest possible way 
-- that is, what ever is in CONTENT is indexed in relation to whatever is 
in NAME. If you wanted to get more complex than that currently you would 
need to do some front- or back-end Perl or what have you to parse the 
content or search differently. If someone would care to spec out how this 
should work natively, we can add it to a desired features list.

Meanwhile, we have discovered a problem with the AutoSwish code that 
means until we fix it you shouldn't use AutoSwish with current DC syntax. 
The period that separates DC from the element name causes problems. You 
can still use SWISH-E just fine, but you will need to write your own 
front-end until we get this fixed. Thanks,
Roy Tennant
