Dear all,
just wanted to let you know that I have published Amanuensis on GitHub: https://github.com/tristantarrant/amanuensis
As the subject says, Amanuensis is a clustered IndexWriter for Infinispan's Lucene Directory which overcomes the usual limitation of having only one writer open at any one time on a Directory by using JGroups muxed channels to stream changes from the slaves to the coordinator.
I have to thank Sanne for help in learning about JGroups muxed channels and also for pointing me at Hibernate Search's backend. My approach is nearly identical, but I wanted something that was a bit closer to a Lucene IndexWriter.
Tell me what you think.
Tristan
