+I started to code something base on your idea of a notmuch daemon. You can =\r
+find\r
+it on:\r
+git://gitorious.org/notsomuch/notmuch.git\r
+On the server branch.\r
+\r
+The idea is to use unix named sockets to intercomunicate between the daemon=\r
+ and the\r
+client. And threads on the server to handle every request. The implementati=\r
+on is=20\r
+no great, it's a fast hack. It can only handle one request per connection a=\r
+nd breaks=20\r
+some times on concurrent request. But I hope helps to see the idea.\r
+\r
+I implemented both, daemon and client in the same binary. So you can still =\r
+run\r
+as before:\r
+$ notmuch search inbox\r
+If the daemon is already running (so the socket is in MAILDIR_PATH/.notmuch=\r
+/socket)=20\r
+it will connect to it and ask for the search. If is not running will fork\r
+creating it and send it the search.\r
+\r
+Up to now the comunication between daemon and client is with the same synta=\r
+x of\r
+notmuch. But I think will be a nice idea to use JSON (or some other\r
+computer-friendly syntax) and convert it to human readable on the client.\r
+\r
+What do you think about that approach? Will it fit on what you imagined or =\r
+is it\r
+to far?\r
+\r
+I'm not sure if that is adding to much complexity to notmuch or is a good i=\r
+dea.\r
