Hi Kurt,

 

We made the choice a long time ago to not allow indexing of the cve.mitre.org web site. At least part of that decision was simply resource constraints – when CVE was in its toddler years, search engine indexers were very resource intensive.

 

We are currently re-examining this policy and will keep the Board posted.

 

Is there an ETA on how long this will take roughly? Days/weeks/longer?
