[Esip-discovery] time for new challenges?

[Lynnes, Christopher S. (GSFC-6102)]

Here is one not obviously related to OpenSearch...Faisal Hossain (this year's winner of the Falkenberg!) wrote an editorial in BAMS lamenting the difficulty of discovering useful web applications (e.g., Giovanni) via major search engines by the applications data content:  http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/BAMS-D-12-00035.1

Hook and I have talked with Microsoft, and indirectly with Google, and there appears to be no quick and easy silver bullet.

This problem appears to be widespread, not just Giovanni. Is this something the Discovery Cluster should tackle?
