I'm done with the serialization protocol. At least, it's in a good shape and
should be integrated with trunk
It uses Avro and is now integrated with both JGroups and JMS backends.
I've abstracted Avro from our serialization logic so we can write alternative
prototypes. I'd be interested to see a Protocol Buffer alternative for example. If
anyone is interested, check out SerializationProvider and it's inplementation
AvroSerializationProvider
Not everything is polished, I've created a list of follow up issues to be fixed before
4.0.

These a good candidates for community contribution.
I have one minor question
Should hibernate.search.jms.indexNameProperty that be part of the protocol or left
separate like today?
I'll send a pull request in the next few minutes
