Vocabulary Explorer Bug

[Alasdair Gray]

Hi all,

I see from the web logs for the Vocabulary Explorer service [1] that  
people are using the service. This is great news.

Unfortunately, I have also noticed that there is a problem when  
searching for terms in the UCD vocabulary. The issue relates to  
including a '.' (full stop) in the search term. This is caused by the  
underlying information retrieval platform.

I'm afraid that for the moment this will have to remain as a bug until  
I have time to fix this. You can retrieve these terms by entering each  
word separately. For example instead of searching for
em.ir
you should search for
em ir

(Sorry about the blanket email, but I am aware that someone is  
consistently searching for UCD terms and I would like to help them  
improve their results.)

Cheers,

Alasdair
