Hi all,
So we got some new search servers (thanks Mark&Rob) and I have deployed them today. As a consequence, the search limit is now re-raised to 500 and interwiki search is back on all wikis. I would still however like to keep srmax on 50 for API because there seems to be quite a number of broken bots and people experimenting...
Additionally, I've switched mwsuggest to lucene backend, so now the AJAX suggestions are no longer alphabetical but ranked according to number of links to them (and some CamelCase and such redirects are not shown). This has been active on en.wp for a while, but now it's on all wikis.
If you see things broken please find me on IRC, or leave a message on my en.wp talk page.
Cheers, Robert

Did you do this by changing the backend API action=opensearch uses, i.e. without (significant) changes to the actual AJAX code?

It changes the action=opensearch backend, or more specifically redefines the PrefixSearchBackend hook.
Cheers, r.
