Almost every project, including Wikipedia, mozdev etc. use specific,
third-party non-open source search engines. IMO "open- vs.
closed-source" is not an argument in this case all opensource search
engines we'e checked a year ago (for my old institute) are quite
sub-optimal.
... and the bug I'm currently thinking about to file (priority="very
high") would be about the problem that there is no functional/useable
sitemap, something which "Clusty" creates automagically (and like
Wikipedia we could offer multiple choices (e.g. "Clusty", "Google",
"Yahoo", "MSN", "Kartoo").
