There are issues with setting the site's language according to the browser detection:

• Many browsers have the language setting incorrectly set. e.g. people who download US versions of Mozilla, pirated US copies in the far east.

• Although thedatahub.org has a worldwide audience, many CKAN instances are designed for a particular country's citizens. So Open Berlin should probably be in German as default for all.

I suggest the site should have a default language saved in the config. The browser language *should* be detected, and that prompts a flash message offering to change to that language. And if you change language that is saved in the cookie (as we currently do).

Then do some testing to see if this suits people.

We made SOLR the main and only supported way to do CKAN search three months ago (#1275), but I notice that we still have remnants of the postgres full-text search hanging around:

• model code (ckan/model/search_index.py)
• table in the database (package_search)

The presence of these still create sqlalchemy warnings and add to our db, (& db backups etc), so it would be good to get rid of them if we are not using them. John says this can probably be removed

When you do a search like this:

http://thedatahub.org/api/search/package?q=tauberer+census&all_fields=1

the "extra" fields (e.g. "triples", "shortname") get missed off the results. The docs say it should be a "full record" and I don't see any reason why this is missed off.

This is a problem because search all_fields is the only way for clients and front-ends to get packages in bulk. They end up (like lodcloud) doing thousands of requests to get packages individually.

The full record is:
