+  \item Changed the results presentation to be document-centric, as opposed to

+  and XML remote) to work in document centric mode and to remove the main pain
+  points identified.
+  \item Simplified all the query APIs by making them almost completely
+  synchronous.
+  \item Added support for ranking the results.
+  \item Brand new implementations for all the query runners.
+  \item Replaced the old GWT based UI with a completely new implementation (see
+  Section~\ref{sec:search:gus}.
