We choose to build the queue system backed with HBase persistency since we wanted the queue to be distributable as well. In terms of search, we opted for SOLR and a mapping between our own content model and SOLR fields. We're still hard at work on that, so I can't tell you much about that. Our content model might be slightly higher-level than what you would need for Socorro's purposes (we support versionable data, and various field types, with a link type as well). We're basically in heads-down mode at the moment, I hope I'll be able to share some concrete planning and design considerations during my Berlin Buzzwords talk the week after next week. From there on, we'll try to communicate more regularly concerning progress. Does that help? Hm. Not much, I guess. Oh: the license will be Apache. No strings attached!
