[hibernate-dev] [HSEARCH] Discussions on metamodel, use cases for it and FieldBridge information for optimizations and metamodel integration

A few of us discussed the hibernate Search metamodel, its use cases and how the API should look like as well as FieldBridge and how it could expose data for optimization and metadata integration.
