Can I take this comment as justification from removing the now poorly tested S::II support from the distribution? :)

This is now raised as ticket #131:

Simon - unfortunately I agree with Ivor. Since none of the developers use S::II it's entirely possible that the support for it has broken :(

Also, the CPAN module is not being actively maintained. The author might be happy for somebody to take it over, but I'm not aware of any takers.

Plucene on the other hand is supported, actively maintained and widely used.

We should retain the "search backend" architecture, as there might be a better mechanism than Plucene available in future.

Ivor.
