But with Zebra, the internal search *is* a Z39.50 search. Searching using 
the up-and-coming Perl/ZOOM API won't be significantly different from 
searching using Net::Z3950.

The difference between using Zebra and any other Z39.50 server is that you 
can set it up to search exactly the way you want... do relevance ranking.. 
sorting... and it is fast.   :-)
