The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

If you ever want to change platform, first decide your target, and then
convert for it.
I think that's good advice. I should note that platforms these days are
defined more by virtual machines and language environments in which
applications run - more so than the hardware and operating systems they may
run on.
By virtual machine and language environment, I'm referring to processes
(i.e. JOBs) in which language environments run. For example, Java, PHP,
Python, Perl, Ruby, Node, and .Net are virtual machine and language
environments that run in processes.
Web browsers similarly run in processes that host a language environment
for JavaScript, and implement an object model for a user interface.
Business systems now generally consist of multiple platforms as opposed to
a single platform. Java is a platform. But so is a Java EE server.
Frameworks, developer tools, and other elements of your technology stack
are choices similar to platform choices.
Rather than deciding "your target", think of the process as deciding and
defining multiple targets. Crystal Reports is a platform.
