FastIndex has been released as open-source software under the terms of the
LGPL. FastIndex is an advanced full-text search engine written in Common
Lisp which, among other features, allows grammatical number and tense not
to be correct in queries. The search engine interfaces with Apache.

FastIndex is currently used as the search engine for an online library that
mostly contains Sherlock Holmes stories. The site is used for a research
project with a number of goals, including exploring Web presentation
without use of graphics.
