I have small documents indexed. 
When I query the index using a BooleanQuery containing {why,is,the,sky,blue}
with all queries having the MUST BooleanClause, I do not retrieve any
results.
However, when I use only { why,sky,blue} I get results which are 
Why is the sky blue? And several of them.

What is going wrong? Please help.

Hi,

do people think we are already in a stage where we can setup some  
basic infrastructure like mailing list and wiki and move the  
discussion to the new mailing list. Maybe setup a incubator project?

I would be happy to help with such basic tasks.

Stefan
