i just wanted to mention, that the whole MSN-engine is outputed as OpenSearch/1.1 on live.com :

SharePoint and Search Server make use of the OpenSearch protocol, with some extensions, for their Search Connectors - which allow SharePoint / Search Server's search results page to aggregate search results from sources not indexed by SharePoint.

Someone should make a picture similar to [1] which shows how the aggregation works. It's so new that it's hard to understand what is meant by opensearch. 70.111.218.254 14:33, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone know what became of this? Clip from 3 years ago. Sounds like a different open search to me. --Bxj (talk) 15:08, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's Wikia Search, a free and open search engine. Both are "open", but are very different things otherwise. Reach Out to the Truth 22:53, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IE9 OpenSearch auto-discovery is missing, making it impossible to get search suggestions through the toolbar. Heyzeuss (talk) 22:24, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A new fork of Elasticsearch, OpenSearch has just been released. It might be helpful to add a disambiguation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Togira Ikonoka 123 (talk • contribs) 15:53, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I've added a hatnote to OpenSearch (software). --Krinkle (talk) 02:27, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

On Talk:OpenSearch (software), I have proposed to move OpenSearch to OpenSearch (syndication) and OpenSearch (software) to OpenSearch because the software project is now better-known than the syndication protocol and is almost always what users are searching for. --Macrakis (talk) 18:48, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have the originator as being amazon.com. This is not quite right. Please read the "website" that you list in the infobox: https://github.com/dewitt/opensearch This indicates a duality and "repurposing" of the name OpenSearch. I think that thi s should be corrected.
