That's the 2006 Lucene sub-project proposal at <http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/LucyProposal/>. Lucy was rebooted last July, entering the Incubator with a new proposal at <http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/LucyProposal>, absorbing the KinoSearch codebase, and aiming to become a top-level Apache project. We should probably go tag that outdated 2006 page with a note indicating that it's obsolete. Our approach has changed over the years. Now nearly all core code is in C. Marvin Humphrey
