I am very excited about this contribution: it fills a huge need.  It's 
existing developers are well known in the Lucene community for their 
technical expertise and abilities to collaborate.  It should be easy to 
build a diverse developer community around this project.  In the few 
weeks since I learned that CNET would contribute this code I have 
already discussed it with folks at several large companies and they 
seemed quite interested in having their developers join such a project. 
  So I think this should move quickly through the incubator.

Doug
