It's all working.

If you want to try using People Search on your own instance, first:

* run a celeryd: ./bin/mysite celeryd -c 1

* run a runserver: ./bin/mysite runserver

Make sure *both* are running! Then log in to your local site, and edit 
your profile to add a tag (e.g., say that you understand Python).

Then go search for understands:python in the web interface: 
http://127.0.0.1/people/?q=understands:python

You should find yourself!

So -- fixed. I'm updating the search index on the deployment site right 
now.
