 Replying to [comment:8 awarner20]:
 > Good to know. As a note, I just searched "fooplugins" again and our two
 most popular plugins are not in the results listing. FooBox and
 FooGallery. Both are authored by bradvin and fooplugins.

 Author names aren't part of the search fields at present. It's searching
 the text in your readme.txt file, for the most part. And it probably
 ignores the links, considering the text that is displayed is generally
 most important.
