I would definitely love to see it polished up some
more! We can probably
put someone on that soon...
I forwarded Robert's email about the new search to wikien-l for people
to give it a good workout, and I think search on Wikimedia sites would
be an excellent topic for a post on the Wikimedia Blog - give people
some awareness of the length and amount of work that goes into a
change such as this with not a lot on the front end but a great deal
on the back. Something like Robert's original email with a writeup of
the year's work leading up to it.
