I attempted to check in this modification...
Lucy is a loose C port of Lucene targeted at dynamic language bindings.
The pace of development has picked up this year, and a significant
milestone was achieved with the completion of the core object model. We
are working agressively towards alpha release.
However, the commit failed, I believe because I don't have commit rights to

My take on this is: if we build it, they will come. I think it will be
challenging to attract developers until we have a real release -- so to expand
the community, we should work to make that release as soon as we can.
