Online resources about creating search engines?

[runarb]

Is there any online forums or/and news groups about creating search engines?

Jimworld used to have a forum name "Running Your Own Search Engine or Directory", but it was unfortunately closed.

The only ressource I knew was Jim's forum. What about starting such a forum? If you're interested, sticky me.

There once was a mailing list but there is no traffic on it since at least two years.
