Folks, This is all great stuff. I too have some thoughts on things to contribute, but always a matter of time like everybody else.
I have a preference overall for keeping ORP separate, I think that's likely to attract other engines. But the one advantage to Lucene/Solr is the increased visibility. I will commit to mentioning ORP when appropriate in talks that I give, web sites that I work on, and in blog postings every now and then. We do have some PR related things coming up. And welcome Tommaso! My particular interest is cross engine functionality. You'll find a wide difference of opinion about which things are a priority and why, but it comes down to "scratch your own itch". I care about cross engine adapters, so that's what I've been thinking about / prototyping. 4 months ago I was working on relevancy judgments, so I posted about that, and tried to contribute some ideas. For legal reasons I wasn't able to contribute code at that time. Does anybody know if ORP is being represented at the upcoming Lucene conference? We'd volunteer to staff a booth, but our company wasn't planning to buy a booth as the prices were way too high for such a new show.
