I was trying to find something on help ubunut.com today..
And search for community documentation didn`t work.

It only works if you enable Google.com scripts. And I will not. Ever.

So please, enable Search on help.ubuntu.com like it was before.
I will not use google search inside help.ubunut.com.
It it:
1. Ugly
2. Google-dependent
3. Forcing users to allow Google java script to work on their machines.
4. Killing user`s privacy
  (since, people does not use help.ubuntu.com, but google.com)

If we as community can`t use, make and administer one small search host
for our internal documentation page, then I would be ashamed to tell
to people:

"Go to help.ubuntu.com : they are so weak they don`t even have their
documentation search , but they use Google for that.." ~:-|
