[Go-essp-tech] Status of Gateway 2.0 (another use case)

For the P2P there is an API to query facets (I think), Luca can answer 
this better than I can.
For the Gateway you would issue "experiment realm frequency MIP_table 
mode" in the text search hit "Search" wait "a lot" and with some luck, 
if it doesn't time out, you'll see the results in the left column under 
"ensemble".
Of course that waiting is not "intentional", but I just wanted to warn 
you...
Anyway, that was the idea about the facets until it was found out that 
it didn't scale (this is my opinion only).

And regarding the limit of 1000 files for the script, it's a pagination, 
not a real limit, so you could still get the next 1000, etc.
I'm just giving possibilities here, not saying they are the best :-)

Thanks,
Estani
