Subject: Re: Ruby/RoR - Lucene integration question ??

Just actually read a bit about Lucene after your post, and found that there
is a new port called Ferret which you may find interesting. 

Seems CDBaby went down this same path,
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/8168.

Might be a more effective shift to move from Lucene to Ferrett then build a
Ferrett gem to integrate into Rails. I am sure this would be well received
open project in the Rails community :)

Warmest regards,
Nathan.
