The Read/Write Web blog is reporting that Mozilla are updating the Firefox Addons site shortly. I haven’t seen the changes live yet, so I can’t comment on what they look like but I do hope they fix the search functionality. I’ll update this post when I see the changes, but most searches for extensions turn up dubious results:

• Search for “mouse gestures” – 1st is Easy Gestures, 2nd is Tab Catalog, 3rd is Mouse Gestures.
• Search for “del.icio.us” – 1st is Groowe Search Toolbar, 2nd is del.icio.us Bookmarks.
• Search for “web developer” – 1st is Web Developer, but search for “Web Developer toolbar” and the Web Developer extension doesn’t even show up in the results!
