Then people can search from those providers anything from multiple OpenGrids. For in-client HTTP search, we can run modified viewers that let us connect to any search provider we've defined in Preferences. (Also hack in secondlife:// links
to add search providers) All this leaves, is how to implement Old Search (if we want to)... honestly considering LL has been phasing this out anyway we might as well just skip it and work on HTTP search.<br><br>Also, I'm not sure but I think
the HTTP search box URL is hardcoded in the client to LL's servers so we'll have to mod the viewer just to get that changeable.</div></div></div></div></div><br>
