[Search-l] Does anyone remember the atlas-l plans?

[Seth Finkelstein]

Jer, I've had it in my mind to ask you what's the difference between
this architecture and something like model-view-controller patterns.
Maybe this is a topic for atlas-l, when you have the time. Frankly,
I don't get what's supposed to be the innovation here, beyond formalizing
search in something like modeling or design pattern language. But then,
that's not my area of expertise, so I could be missing the insight.
