Search engines have nothing to do with the meta tags the O/P was referring
to.
These meta tags can be safely deleted. They simply identify the FP version
being used, etc.

| Meta tags used to be important to search engine optimization but
| generally speaking when assuming to say something about a trade
| secret that the search engine operators do not openly discuss it has
| been said by many that meta tags are no longer used as they have
| been abused by spoofers and spamdexers.
|
| Still, they take much less time to create than they do to think up
| and many continue to throw them in just for the hell of it anyway.
|
| On the other hand, when working with XML meta tags become a
| requirement but thats a whole other issue I can't take the time to
explain.
