Newbie to Lucene - Questions about features

Hi,

I'm currently doing a study on Apache Lucene search engine and I'm missing
some information. Does Apache Lucene is capable of:
- allowing user to search in a particular website / database only? 
- allowing tagging ?
- suggesting additional related articles on top of those already provided in
the search results?
- providing thumbnails of the search result ?
- providing site alert feature in case no result is found ?

What about the administration ? What are the features of apache lucene
java's search admin ?

I've search through various wikis and documentation in the apache lucene
website but can't find the answers.

Hope that someone can help me !

Thanks in advance,
Chris

It Depends (tm). The thing to understand is that Lucene is a search*engine*,
not an out-of-the-box product. There are products that do many
of the things you're asking about that are *built* with Lucene, but it's
a more complicated process than just installing it and twiddling
a few configurations.

Best
Erick
