------- Comment #2 from pcase@crs.loc.gov  2007-10-16 12:27 -------
[3] The FTTF agreed. The text was reorganized as follows:
The weight MUST have an absolute value between 0.0 and 1000.0 inclusive.
The weights assigned are not related to any absolute standard, but typically
have a relationship to other weights within the same FTContains expression.
The effect of weights on the resulting score is implementation-dependent.
However, scoring algorithms MUST conform to these constraints:
1. When no explicit weight is specified, the default weight is 1.0; and
2. Weight declarations in an FTContainsExpr for which no scores are evaluated
are ignored.
[4a]The FTTF agreed. We changed the sentence to:
The weights assigned are not related to any absolute standard, but typically
have a relationship to other weights within the same FTContains expression. 
[4b] No change.
[4c] No change.

These changes will appear in the next build of the internal Full-Text language
after the October 11 build, and in the next public version. They close the last
items in this bug. 

Michael, if you approve of the changes, please mark the bug closed.
