Taxonomic Search Engine added to A9

TSE now supports the OpenSearch interface developed by A9.com (Amazon.com's new search engine). You can add TSE to your search by going to A9 and clicking on the Add Columns to your Search Results link on the right).

A9 could be used to quickly prototype a biodioversity portal by adding support for OpenSearch™ to contributing databases.
