> Intro to the Lucene Ecosystem  (Grant Ingersoll)

Lucene has grown immensely from its early days as a pure search  
library in Apache Jakarta to an Apache top level project  encompassing  
a variety of tools aimed at solving problems related to structured and  
unstructured data.  In this overview talk, Lucene PMC Chair Grant  
Ingersoll will introduce each of the tools and provide use cases and  
information on getting started using the Lucene ecosystem.

: We need abstracts ASAP for those five talks listed, plus we need bios for Ted

FWIW: I was planning on tweaking the abstract/title of Solr OOTB to be 
more focused on the demo (and less on the intro to Solr) but even knowing 
what changes i have in mind for the talk, i can't think of any better 
wording for the abstract then what i used last year (and should be the 
same in the CFP from this year, but i can't get to that) ...

Interesting.  Looking at the pieces of hte schedule that are already 
online...

	http://www.us.apachecon.com/c/acus2009/schedule/days

...it looks like there are still 5 one hour sessions per day, but the 
breaks have been moved arround and there is no gap for a keynote on 
friday.

There is also one talk which is not on our list that has already been put 
in a slot in the "Lucene track" on thursday afternoon...
