Cool! One question: CouchDB is written in Erlang and Lucene is Java. So CouchDB is now a dual language project, implementation wise?

I think what they're saying is that it used to be CouchDB -> Addon -> Lucene, where it's now just CouchDB -> Lucene. It still requires a separate component in Lucene; it just doesn't require maintaining another separate component.
