Thank you. I am talking about dismax's parameters. This is how I understand things, please tell me where I'm wrong:
Query slop (qs) = how many words you can move the query to match the text. Phrase slop (ps) (when used in conjunction with &pf=text - is there another possibility?) = how many words you can move the text to match the query. How are those two different in terms of the results they produce?
