Hey Erik et al. 

I am glad to hear your Lucene in Action book is going to the printers. I
will order a copy ASAP.

BTW JavaOne 2005 is doing a call for papers. I was thinking about signing
up. You should think about it too. (The year I got accepted, I submitted 5
presentations, and they choose one b/c someone called in sick. The called me
last minute. I spoke on XDoclet making EJB CMP/CMR easier. Shudder...
Brrr...) 

I plan on being in town (Tucson) for the next six weeks or so (plans subject
to change). I am writing some articles for IBM and starting a book for
O'Rielly for my down time (Drew and I are working on it together).

Sorry I missed you in VA. I wanted to get together the last week, but my
schedule got crazy. 

When are you coming to Tucson?

I better get to work. There is no persecution like staring at a blank page.

BTW are there any Eclipse plugin/SWT experts in Tucson? that would not mind
traveling a bit to LA????

Lucene!!!!

The query would be this "name:olson OR email:olson" if you indexed that
information into separate fields.  A common technique is to index all data
you want queryable also into an aggregate field in which case the query
could simply be "olson".

The full source code to Lucene in Action is at
http://www.manning.com/hatcher2 - the ebook is available.  The physical book
is shipping from the printers as we speak (UPS tracking says I should have
gotten my batch yesterday, but it'll be today it seems).  
http://www.lucenebook.com will go live within the week searching
*inside* the book as well as a blog system I'm setting up.
