it's been less fruitful than expected but a very blooming workshop! Though we did produce some code fragments the major contributions were in discussion and the community building process.

We made contacts with coders outside open-search, in particular we've found a candidate from the vrije universiteit to plug a P2P layer in the open-search client. We compiled and tested a first windows version at the workshop, though there is no package yet.

We've received comments from designers & layouters, and also some hands-on design experiments and brainstorm about the user-interface that are to be followed up…

the road is still long, but the open-search path is on the verge to become a street! stay tuned.
