By giving PUCC complete control of UltraSeek, we lose the ability to make tools which interact with UltraSeek at low levels. This could keep us from providing adequate user services. The earlier PUCC attempt at providing a search system for Purdue resulted in a search period of around one month. If we keep the data collection in-house, we can fine tune collection to meet the needs of our users. This information is maintained by Kyler Laird.
Constructive feedback is welcome.
