IssueDescription
Search cannot find result

I2 spaces has too many spaces

Search cannot filter by Grouper

Minor issue is cannot anonymously search in Grouper space

More substantial issue the user shouldn't need to filter at all

Cannot tune the search resultsSince there is more than one wiki, we cannot test searches,
tune the results, and expect that to persist in future (since
too many spaces)
Shared plugins, upgrades, etcHaving Grouper in shared I2 spaces means we are dependent
on the community for plugins, versions, upgrades, etc.  e.g.
if we want to install a new search plugin for Grouper, it might
not be possible / practical while in spaces
Collocating Grouper docs with dev docsWould be nice to have an "internal" space which is in a different
doc repo than Grouper docs.  So both can be public
but the searches in Grouper space would never return internal 
docs
Labels are globalLabels are not per space, they are global.  So when searching by label
(which we want people to do since we will label pages by document
type), we would like to have a succinct and controllable set of labels

This document is intended to identify the problem, but a solution POC of moving the Grouper user documentation to the cloud seems to address these.  An issue with the is finding "cross product" docs (e.g. how to integration Grouper with Comanage).  I think this problem is the lesser of two evils and people can search the Grouper docs and the Comanage docs for such information or could use Google.  We have the existing problem with Grouper / Shibboleth / MidPoint which are in different doc repos and it has not been identified in the survey as a significant problem.  Grouper should have links to all relevant ingration docs.

Another issue is SSO to the cloud.  Worst case we have users/passes (for institutions without an EPPN identity provider).
