Yes, thank you. That's ideal.

I would just add that www.centos.org could have a direct Search on the front
page - listen, this is just my opinion. I have used the site for a while,
but have never noticed the Search link. It is not a problem on the page,
it's a problem on the user (me), and I still believe some (or most) users
are "lazy" like me. That's a question of comfort which makes things much
easier. That's why "we" are accustomed to using google instead of even
looking for a search mechanism on the site we are looking at.

or using google with a search like this:
