[M Butcher]

All,

I've been very slow on getting version 2.0 of the Lucene search module 
put in place, and a number of people have been creating patches that are 
in demand. In an effort to bridge the gap between releases (and avoid 
forking the project), I'm putting together a page of contributions that 
people have made to the Lucene search module.

Here is the list:

I know there is at least one patch that I forgot to include. If anyone 
knows of some I've missed, please let me know.

What I intend to do going forward is to take Stephen Hartmann's version, 
which contributes greatly to the flexibility of the module, and then 
merge in Jens Rickhoff's multiple content body patch and Marcus 
Redeker's  search patches. If any one feels like helping with this 
merge, please do!

Also, as an aside, someone recently remarked to me that they were 
creating a "proprietary" version of my module to sell to a client. The 
module is under GPL, which means you are more than welcome to sell a 
binary to a client, but you _must_ release the derrivative work and 
source code under the GPL.

Again, I always welcome contributions to the module!

Matt
