[hibernate-dev] Hibernate Search Question

[Emmanuel Bernard]

Hello Christian,

As Sanne said, we won't do it ourselves but if someone is interested, we will be more than happy to help and integrate the work.
With the work done in recent versions, most specific code is now isolated and it is "just" a matter of creating a new module hibernate-orm-jpa under the same model as hibernate-orm and work from there.
