Package Searching

  One of the primary functions of the repository is to enable text searching
  of package metadata to locate specific packages, both for web browsing and
  web services.

  To enable FTI and searching of packages, two methods are used. One is  
  integration with the openacs search mechanism (http://openfts.sf.net) so that 
  packages can be searched along with site content. The other mechanism is
  based on the postgesql's tsearch module (written by the authors of openfts) to 
  index individually and collectively a package's searchable metadata. This second
  mechanism will be the primary search tool for webservices and browser package
  specific searches.
