What do you guys think?

I have written a search engine system, similar to something like Google and
altavista.

I think it is pretty cool. I wrote it because I had an idea, not because of any
projected customers.

It is mostly command line based and does have a mode where, using MPI, a search
cluster can be managed through one machine.

It is pretty raw, but works fairly well. It compiles and functions under
Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and I am working out some last bugs on Darwin.

Anyone have any ideas on how to package the system or to whom to sell it?

Would I be a fool to open source all of it. (A good part of it is already open
sourced.)
