Well, I had little doubt that you had your own relevancy ranking system. What I have much more doubt about is whether it is really competitive with, say, what FAST offers in that regard, to name a leading enterprise search vendor. But I'd gladly be briefed on it. At the Text Analytics Summit, perhaps? CAM Hi Catherine!

It provides that all-important first step in Inxight's acquire-extract-store-cleanse-visualize process. We (Inxight) are very excited about this merger. You can't have "business intelligence" without taking into account the 85% of information trapped in unstructured text. And you can't have an "information access" solution (as Gartner classifies it) without taking into account the 15% of information that is structured. Stay tuned!
