You sound like a man that wants a manual. Lucene In Action is the way to
go. It targets 1.4 instead of 2.0, so I'm sure you will still have
complaints, but if you want to get up to speed on Lucene fast, LIA is
the way to go. LIA will give you the overview and important classes, and
then the documentation you have seen so far will suffice to catch you up
on the 2.0 changes. Like Grant mentioned, if you want to learn on the
cheap there are plenty of articles that give a quick tutorial on the
main Lucene classes and how to use them as well. Lucene is surprising
simple to use and I think that has contributed to the non manual-ish
style of documentation.

I'm sorry you are not finding what you need. The snowball analyzers
come in a separate jar, in the release zip, under the contrib/
snowball directory. You may also want/need the analyzers in contrib/
analyzers for other languages. The README delivered w/ the release
probably should be updated to state that this is where you find the
additional analyzers. I will do that shortly (which doesn't help
you, but should help others going forward)
Well, I looked everywhere I could think of for this contrib directory, with
no luck. I ended up having to go install subversion on a separate machine
(I'm working on a HPUX machine that I don't control), check out the
sources, build them (by hand, since the machine doesn't have ant either)
and make my own tarball. ugh.
This was much more difficult than it should have been, but at least I think
I got it working.
