Article doesn't make a clear assertion of notability ("currently mostly used as a demo or in small scale projects"); no secondary sources in the article; no obvious secondary sources when I searched for them. On the other hand this is not a topic that I know much about; does the fact that it is an open source search engine written in Java and can perform both vector and Boolean search render it notable? This does not seem likely to me. TheGrappler (talk) 21:26, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's a fair number of hits in CS literature but they are just passing mentions, for example  . I get the impression that the it may be notable within the academia, but that would still leave us with only the developer's website to base the article on — Frankie (talk) 22:02, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete or Merge. No need for a standalone article. Merge if a suitable parent article exists, references could be better though... 1292simon (talk) 05:35, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
