well, i was assuming those fundraising drives go towards employing some
people who work on big picture infrastructure cross-project /strategy/
publicity stuff for WMF?? (and suggesting that perhaps federated WMF
search could be within their circle of interest)

university librarians love promoting federated search - but
currently very few universities provide links to WM Foundation
projects because they appear to be scattered / uncoordinated

i'd suggest doing this properly and officially, and that every
cent invested in what would seem to be a pretty simple task, could
then provide a promotional and usability coup for WMF
surely, there's some beta somewhere? (i had a quick search without
luck)

a simple heuristic would be: type what you
are looking for with the keyword "wiki" and hope that the internet search engine
has it archived
Try appending "
site:.org inurl:wiki inurl:en" to
google/yahoo search
queries. I'll see if I can build a search feed mashup later.
