--From an email. @tloubrieu-jpl's response is bolded.--

1. Is the new search API going to continue using natural language processing?
   Yes later

2. Is a general search of the PDS going to be performed using the products API? https://nasa-pds.github.io/pds-api/#tag/products
   Yes

3. When I try to use the products API https://pds-gamma.jpl.nasa.gov/api/products?start=0&limit=100&q=mars to search for example 'mars' I get a 'This page isn't working' error:
   
   There is a query syntax which does not handle text search yet, but property eq value
   There is a ticket for that implement freetext search registry-api-service#5

4. Are we going to support faceting? In the API documentation there is a query parameter for field but how do we add values for those fields?
   
   Yes we need to create ticket

5. In the current UI we have a filter button between data and documentation. Is this still going to exist or will we only differentiate between bundle and collections?
   
   @jordanpadams ?
