One of the replies I got on a previous thread mentioned range queries,
with this example:
[NOW-6MONTHS TO NOW]^5.0 ,
[NOW-1YEARS TO NOW-6MONTHS]^3.0
[NOW-2YEARS TO NOW-1YEARS]^2.0
[* TO NOW-2YEARS]^1.0
Something like this seems more flexible, and into it, I read an
implication that the performance would be better than the boost function
you've shown, but I don't know how to actually put it into a URL or
handler config.
I also seem to remember seeing something about how to do "less than" in
range queries as well as the "less than or equal to" implied by the
above, but I cannot find it now.
Thanks,
Shawn

I used this before my search term and it works well:
{!boost b=recip(ms(NOW,publishdate),3.16e-11,1,1)}
Its enough that when I search for *:* the articles appear in
chronological order.
