I have just joined this user group, but I probably will be asking questions / contributing for a while now as I am starting to work on a product which will use Lucene exclusively.
Still in the designing phase, and I see that we need to manage several user / application specific configurations and I am exploring the idea of storing the configuration information also in the Index, may be create a separate index just for the configuration, because each module of the application will have access to Lucene classes. I know technically this can be done, but are there any best practises which discourage this? Thanks in advance. -Pradeep
