   \subparagraph{toc.cgi collections--Network transparency}
   Each of the collections in toc.cgi is a ``virtual'' collection, that
   is, a collection of links or uri's to resources that reside somewhere on an accessible
   network, local or remote.  
   
   \subparagraph{toc.cgi collections--remote resources}
   
   What is at the other end of the link is of no concern to toc.cgi, as
   long as the resource referenced by the link meets minimal toc.cgi
   requirements--how the resource is actually implemented and exposed is
   a matter for the resource provider. The link may, for instance, point
   directly to an xml text or it may point to a container which exposes a
   particular xml view of an underlying resource that is perhaps not in
   xml format at all.

   \paragraph{Status quo ECHO}
   Currently indexing is not implemented on the ECHO server.
   
   \paragraph{Plan ECHO}
   
   \begin{enumeration}
   \item construct remote (141.14.236.86) index for each file at
     per-change or daily intervals
   \item store indices locally in
   archimedes/data/db/PROJECT_NAME/CORPUS_NAME/WORK
   \item 2 progs on server 1. cgi: indexer 2. backend da_remote
   \item 2 progs on client 1. cgi: sendindex 2. backend getindex
   \item indexing transaction handled by two cgi scripts, one on the
     server the other on the client [this is the 1st implementation bcs
     its easiest and there are no port issues, but probably it'd be
     better to have a separate port]. 
   \item client cgi: getindex -- sends 1.  list of files to index
     2. uri to which xml notification of completion is to be sent. Upon
     notification, activates backend prog that fetches and installs the
     indices.  
   \item server cgi: indexer receives filelist and notification
     addess. Activates backend that fetches files, indexes, places
     completed indexes in a networked location, then sends xml
     notification back to client. 
   \item single script provides backend access to indices 
   \item leave front-end issues like display, collection and navigation
     to web-design programmers. Do only a  sample for now.

   \paragraph{addarch.pl ARCHIMEDES} 
   
   Automatically registers new texts as toc.cgi objects when they appear in
   cvs. Automatically updates relevant morphological indices (slow!) each
   time a cvs update occurs. This program is called by a hook in the cvs
   ``loginfo'' configuration file. 
   
   
   \paragraph{makelemma.pl ARCHIMEDES}
   
   Updates lemmatization indices. 
   Parameters: 
   No parameter--update all lemmatization indices
