Howdy,
Here is this week's update from the Discovery department.
* A new quarter has begun. Discovery's goals for this new quarter have been
posted here: Discovery 2016-17 Q1 Goals.[1] The results of our goals for
the quarter just ended can be seen here: Discovery 2015-16 Q4 Goals. [2]
* Search: sent out request for comment on the handling of question marks at
the end of a query via email and village pumps [3]
* Portal: sent out request for comment on the new page layout design via
email (and soon to be released to village pumps) [4]
* Geo bounded search keyword will roll forward to production next week. No
map integration yet.
