Not easy and this has been requested a lot. No i mean a lot.
It is definately not going to be even started until after v1.0
Seeing as Abiword v1.0 will go gold in the next few weeks from next
month onwards you might consider getting all the people who keep asking
for footnotes and endnotes to all thow in $5 or 5 Euro or whatever and
create a big incentive for the developers to implement them.
(I have E20 burning a hole in my pocket and im trying to encourage on of
the developers to do some stuff i want, but that is not important right
now).

Easy when you know how!
both Altavista and Google support searching just one specific site like
so you could probably find this email using the keywords:
site:abisource.com horkana Rasmussen
but you would have to wait until the site is added/updated to their
database of course. similarly if you want to know who links to
abisource.com search using:
link:abisource.com
And that reminds me, the site does have a newly added search engine.
http://www.abisource.com/search/
Words of thanks and praise are deserved by Hubert Figuiere (hfiguiere@teaser.fr)
(he set it up as far as i know).
Sincerely
