Marko-

I have given Matthew the code to make the search work with and without
Javascript.  After a couple of rounds of refinement, he has tested it
and is now satisfied with the code.

Matthew has committed to rolling it out to production.  The manner in
which help.ubuntu.com is constructed does not allow for a quick
rollout.  (Perhaps he could use some Apache server-side-includes, but
that's a completely different discussion).  He has to rebuild the
entire site.  I'm quite confident that this item is on Matthew's to-do
list, and that he will take care of it.

In the meantime, though, I will invite you to review our Ubuntu
Community Code of Conduct:
 * http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct

The manner in which you have addressed Doug, myself, and others on
this mailing list is not becoming of an Ubuntu community member.
Please be considerate, constructive, and collaborative.

Please have some patience.  Everyone involved here is a voluntary
contributor to the Ubuntu Documentation Project.

Matthew-

I understand that your time has been crunched lately...  Would it be
possible for me, or anyone else to help you with the site rebuild?
