[Xapian-devel] Integrate Xapian into an application or framework
The default WordPress search works ok, but it's relatively slow and clumsy. So I decided to have a look at if and how I could integrate Xapian into WordPress. Before writing proposal I want to know that is it acceptable project in "Integrate Xapian into an application or framework" category. And please let me know if someone worked before on this project.

FWIW, there is a Dezi plugin for Wordpress here: https://github.com/APMG/dezi-for-wordpress Dezi has a Xapian backend option via Search::Xapian on CPAN. http://dezi.org/2012/02/19/xapian-backend/ -- Peter Karman . http://peknet.com/ . peter at peknet.com

That certainly sounds like an acceptable project. As someone else has pointed out, it's worth looking at what else there is out there (both Xapian based and not) for comparison -- including the feature set of Wordpress VIP's paid search add on, which uses elasticsearch.
