Hmm, I'm not too familiar with Lucy, but it looks like quite a heavyweight solution for this. Would a simple serialisation interface like JSON or YAML be better?
Possibly. My attraction to Lucy was more its (semi-standard Lucene-style) keyword /indexing/ rather than being a simple metadata store.
You're right though, a JSON file would be much more "consumable". I'll check later whether there are standard modules for searching / indexing JSON.
Hrm, although this does raise the point that W::T does rely on some quite complex metadata queries; performance on a collection of JSON/YAML will suck for that, so that's probably not as good an idea after all.
I can't help saying 'sqlite' at this point...
