We are replacing the Deki search with the new Google powered search when we update the Deki skin... so this might not be an issue.

BUT, we should make sure search works on Deki v10 regardless.  

Moving to Deki Infra component.

Does the "new Google powered search" not have the problems that led to switching from the old Google powered search to Nutch a while ago? (Separating pages from different languages among other issues, as I recall.)

Let's re-evaluate search results and issues after we update the Deki skin and get some usage on the Google search.

We won't be able to "fix" anything until the new Doc Center platform is built and we move away from Deki, so we should gather as much info as possible once the new search is live.

r.fixed.  new google search is now live on both the django and deki pages.  we may reactivate the deki search on docs pages if we are happy with deki v10 results/performance.

Raymond -- mind verifying this, since I haven't been working on the project for a while (i.e., on both django and deki pages, as per comment 4).

Thanks!
