When I first visited the jGuru FAQ a couple of years ago, I was put off by the "PREMIUM" notice next to Otis's name, and (for whatever reason) got the impression that only paying members could access the content. I later figured out this wasn't true, but only after having abandoned the effort the first time (and this is exactly when a project can least afford to put people off).
Otis, check yourself. It's true that you are the FAQ maintainer, but only you are agreeing to keep things as they are, in the face of vocal opposition. There is the *appearance* of a conflict of interest in your stance (whether or not this is the case).
In my opinion, the features jGuru provides do not win over those available via the Wiki (especially when you consider the blaring commercial messages you have to endure at jGuru). And the benefit of having a single place to go for info about Lucene puts the Wiki on top for me.
+1 Wiki -1 jGuru

I'd remove the older, unmaintained one. jGuru one is more up to date.
Unfortunately the start page of it contains three fat ads, that's three too much for an Open Source project. Also it cannot be searched, and it's difficult to read because not only the question is in bold but also the category and the name. Almost all of this is better at both the sourceforge FAQ and a Wiki FAQ.
