== TL;DR == * Faceted search live on demo server! * Direct tool registration making progress * New demo server setup created to support search
We have search! With this functionality in the core product we have reached and exceeded feature parity with Hay's Directory. Bryan has been doing some comparison searches using the two tools and found that the results are comparable. In some instances Hay's Directory will return more results than Toolhub, but thus far each of these extra results has proven to be information for a tool that is no longer active on Toolforge. This also marks completion of the second of three named goals for our January-March quarter.
Work is likely to continue on direct tool registration through the end of March, and possibly into the early part of April. We will be spending some time in the coming weeks to prioritize the planned work remaining to reach our "1.0" feature targets.
