Subject: [PATCH 4/6] search: note why we do not support FLAG_PURE_NOT
Date: Sat,  5 Sep 2015 09:01:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1441443668-21092-5-git-send-email-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1441443668-21092-1-git-send-email-e@80x24.org>

Perhaps this can be optionally enabled in the future for smaller
sites.
