Based in that little encouragement, I completed my blog based on lucene. Its taken a bit longer that I had hoped because the need to develop another application came up in the middle that took about a month out of the process, but I am almost there - its in a releasable state - although there are a few rough edges to deal with. I have to say a database based on lucene seems very small (the directory with most of the current articles in was about 150K bytes) and it seems to run very fast. URL below is where its running -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk Open Source. It's the difference between trust and antitrust. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
