Well it's used over the entire Mozilla code base (ALL their projects and revisions/versions) so it's tested extensively in the wild. It came from LXR->MXR->DXR although DXR is more of a complete remodeling, I believe. Whoosh may be able to stay, and Kallithea would use only the cross referencing but it would probably make more sense to just replace it entirely.
I'll see what I can come up with and make a more concrete proposal (time permitting). Thanks.

See http://dxr.mozilla.org for an example of a running DXR system, it is invaluable in large projects with a lot of code to wade through. Integrating into Kallithea would give you the awesomeness of Kallithea together with DXR source browsing/indexing, which IMO would put Kallithea over the top as a highly integrated SCM. DXR is written in Python, as is Kallithea, so integration should be moderately straightforward (although I doubt easy). If there is some strong interest in this, I may consider contributing towards this (although not sure how much or how far I can get myself). That sounds great. I guess it somewhat would duplicate / replace the existing whoosh based searching and file browsing. Full cross referencing is big. I hope it can be done in a way where it also can be used on big repos with lots of open branches. Perhaps by having some kind of specification of what revision/branch it should index. /Mads
