Gabriele, Good to hear from you again!
HtDig 4.0 is fully converted to CLucene and committed to the CVS tree below. RightNow Tech has been using it in production for 3+ years now and it's very stable and well tested. Unicode support etc. http://htdig.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/htdig/htdig/?pathrev=htdig_4_0 HtDig as a project is pretty much a zombie. I think you would be better off expending energy within the Solr and Nutch communities. There is inherent risk in committing yourself to an open source project that in a zombie state. Even CLucene is in a bit of an unhealthy state as far as I know it's not keeping up with mainline Lucene and is relatively quiet on it's developer mailing list.
