It appears as if the website search results are incomplete and may not be
searching custom fields. Since the majority of content is contained in
custom fields this is a problem.
As reported via email:
> The member search also returns some unexpected results e.g. Jo Cook, Ian
Turton and Matt Walker
> (friends and colleagues of mine) all have Astun Technology in their
bios and under the ‘company’ field, I > have Astun Technology in bio:
> if you search for Astun only Jo’s name is returned
> If you search for Astun Technology none of our names are returned

The same effect can be seen when searching for the projects list for
"PostGIS". Only the PostGIS project is listed, although many projects
(from deegree to QGIS) have PostGIS mentioned in their CTO fields.
