Search on Freshmeat

After I've posted the last release 2.1.0 of Roma Meta Framework on Source Forge I tried to search the project by typing "Roma" in the search field of Freshmeat home page:

0 search results for: roma

What???? If I type "Roma Framework": the result is always 0 (zero) results but with the result table filled:

Maybe they require an exact search? Not properly, since if I try to search for "framework":

1941 search results for: framework

What kind of search is it?
