I'm not sure this is the way to go (due to my experience) just to
avoid any possible misunderstanding I suggest to subscribe to legal@
and discuss about it tere to clarify any doubt.

I see, but that would require a little work for our users - I meant
placing the search bar just configuring parameters in the site.xml in
the <custom/> section, see the fluido-skin to see how we did it, if

no worries, no fault from your side, that is because the skin changed
a little and elements are now configurable, DM site would require a
