For the hell of it I started whacking at glossary a couple of days ago. The data model and many of the queries are now ported.
However, glossary's incomplete, or rather Walter McGinnis apparently got part-way through a enhancement pass while still at aD and that part-way status is frozen in time. This is probably related to the fact that he no longer works there :) The Oracle version craps out when I add a term, for instance - a glossary with no definitions isn't very useful!
So I plan to fiddle today to see if I can fill in the missing pieces for the Oracle version and complete the PG version.
Of course, this package could be implemented as a spin on ETP rather than living life on its own. One reason I decided to port it, though, is that it is very simple but still makes full use of the content repository (both text and images), templating, acs-workflow, and the form handler. I think it's worthwhile as a short, relatively simple example of how all these pieces can be tied to together to make a coherent whole(and as time permits I'll tie it into the new search package structure, too).
