Hi, Chris Conrad, thanks for your reply.
I guess it'll be very interesting for us to hear the story of how
sourceforge built the search by lucene.
Like what's the structure, how the indexes are synchronized/updated, and
how it can perform under your current load.
Any tips will also be very interesting.

Hello,
The "results by YAHOO! search" is a marketing thing that we have no
real control over. I promise that the actual project search engine
is using Lucene.
As for defaulting to OR, it was decided that the new search should
function as similarly as possible to the old search system by
default. The new search engine, however, will happily handle boolean
queries in the search box, so feel free to search for "lucene and
java". We're working on a comprehensive search guide which will
explain the features in more details but some of the new things you
can do include phrase searches and prefix searches.
And I have to admit, we haven't stomped out all of the bugs yet. If
you do find something that seems genuinely broken, please submit a
support request.

Hi,
I found Sourceforge's search is still "results by YAHOO! search".
What does that mean?
And currently, seems the search condition for the keywords is still
OR, not AND.
This makes search for "lucene java" returns a long list, yet without
the one I wanted in the first several rows.

Hello,
I just wanted to let everyone know that we've officially announced
that the new SourceForge.net search system is based on Lucene.
It's been in operation for over a month now and we're very happy
with it. I'd also like to personally thank Erik Hatcher for
helping me out during development.
You can find Lucene listed in the Site Software section of our
support guide here: http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?
