+<b>About pazpar2</b>
+
+<p>
+pazpar2 (pronounced "Passe-partout") uses Ajax and other technologies to improve the speed and functionality of simultaneous multi-target search and retrieval. It enables fast sorting and merging across multiple target databases, as well as faceted search limiting and search re-directing. Index Data expects to release pazpar2 as open source software in Spring 2007. At that point, the search engine and a simple interface will be released under the open source General Public License.
+<p>
+
+As with all Index Data's open source distributions, pazpar2 will be both freely downloadable and fully backed by the best commercial support in the library market. Institutional users will pay only for optional installation, customization and support services, if they choose to obtain them, but the software itself will be freely usable and will not require ongoing license fees.
+<p>
+
+A listserv for pazpar2 will be announced when the software is formally released.
+<p>
+
+Index Data means business for open source and open standards.
