* database: Main.DatabaseSearch * lucene: Main.LuceneSearch, XWiki.LuceneSearchAdmin, XWiki.SuggestLuceneService * solr: Main.SolrSearch, XWiki.SolrSearchAdmin We have several choices I think: 1) Move all pages in the XWiki space 2) Move each search impl in a space named after the impl: Possibility A: ** DatabaseSearch ** SolrSearch ** LuceneSearch Possibility B: ** XWiki.DatabaseSearch ** Solr.Search ** Lucene.Search 3) Move all search impls into a Search space: * Search.Solr* * Search.Database* * Search.Lucene* * Search.Search (current Main.Search page) My preferences goes to either 2B) or 3) with a small preference for 3). The advantage of 3) is that we can we can have everything related to search in the Search space which makes them easy to find. Option 2) will mean scattered search pages in 4 spaces: one for the search app, and 2 or 3 others for the implementations. Ideally we would have sub spaces of Search but in the meantime IMO it's fine to have 3). Another way of viewing this is that there's only 1 search app (with multiple SPI implementations) and thus it's logical that this app puts its pages into a single space (called Search).
