> It obviously uses Ferret for indexing and searching, and adds some plain
> text extractors in order to index OOffice.org, pdf and MS Office
> documents (and some others as well).
>
> Everything is packed in a gem (gem install picolena), with a few rake
> tasks, a multi-threaded indexer, a language guesser, a rails frontend
> and some specs to be sure everything works fine.

> My project is in now way supposed to be a competitor of AAF: we have
> different goals (ActiveRecord indexing plugin vs. stand-alone rails-app
> for documents indexing), but still a lot in common.

> I dare say Picolena would be useful in a lot of companies (as a
> google-mini alternative), and has already been working in production for
> a few months without a hitch. This has been made possible thanks to
> Ferret's incredible speed. Kudos to the devs!
