Team, If you want to search for Tika Jira issues, I just added Tika coverage into the Lucene "dog food" server we use for finding Lucene/Solr issues at http://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com.
I just posted a blog post describing recent changes: http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2014/03/using-lucenes-search-server-to-search.html Basically I started this as an effort to test Lucene's functionality in a "real" application/server (searching for issues), and to eat our own dog food, but then over time I think it's proven quite useful and I now use it almost exclusively when I need to find a Lucene issue. Compared to Jira's builtin search, it's more "full text" like; e.g., makes suggestions as you type, produces snippets and highlights, ranks by blended relevence+recency, etc. It has facets so you can quickly drill down/sideways by various metadata. In the results, you can click on a snippet to go straight to the specific comment and issue that it came from. It uses Lucene's near-real-time indexing + searching, so issue updates should be visible within ~ 30 seconds or so. I hope you find it useful too! Mike McCandless http://blog.mikemccandless.com
