Thanks for the encouragement. This is my first open source project, and I mainly wrote it because I was disappointed with Djapian's Xapian interface and was quite impressed with Haystack.

Originally, I was planning on using Whoosh for the backend, but quickly ran into issues with locked files when deploying to a live server.

Anyways, I'd love to hear any comments and feedback you may have after you've given the code a try.
