Hi,

the docs for Full Text Search (pre 8.3: tsearch2) explain how to include
a thesaurus dictionary. It also says the current implementation is
only an extension of the synonym dictionary with added phrase support.
Are there any plans to include a proper thesaurs support, with broader
terms and narrower terms and so, on in postgresql?

Regards
Florian

Re: thesaurus support in postgresql

just a follow up to my question regarding thesaurus support.
Is there really no one here who knows anything about it?

If there are plans for it?
If there is someone currently working on it?
Or if there is somebody else I could ask?

Regards
Florian

I'm one of the author of thesaurus. We're interested in improving of
thesaurus, but have no spare time. You're welcome to improve
