Mike,

Peter Pilgrim & I already did some integration work with eForum... you can 
check out the code if it would help.

I would rather not have it directly as part of the Expresso project, but 
what I WOULD like to see is a framework that can abstract the Lucene Search 
Engine and provide a generic Lucene to DBObject 'bridge'.  This would then 
be released as the finalization of the eSearch project.  [Since Giovanni 
had already created a spider, there's some good base code in there, we just 
need to abstract the Lucene search engine to allow 'pluggable' guts of the 
engine.

This make sense of what I'm asking for?
