It is arguably the best search library available for Java, but I haven't looked in detail at the dot net port. > > Where can I read up on the evolution searching library?

I suspect reading C source code isn't a quick way to learn an API, and reading C# wrapped C source code is an even slower way! If it really does get adopted for monodoc, would there be any chance of you convincing the relevant person to write a high level overview of the library's architecture and/or key code points? Is there any time frame/deadline on the browser's search development? If you think it might be worth it, I may take a look into how much work a Lucene based search feature would take?
