Component body

This is a node matching API that understands CCK and Taxonomy, and matches nodes based on specified settings.

It can be used for product matching, user personality/interest matching and similar applications.

An example for using this API can be found in the User matching module.

To Do

It would be nice to modify this API so users can enter the matching criteria themselves, rather than have the admin select it for them. However, this incurs performance overhead on large sites, since all nodes have to be scanned for every user's criteria.
