Actually, Pete created a service for interfacing with Lucene.Net. Technically, the service allows you to index anything that can be converted into a text file and then to query for it. However, it still needs a driver application that feeds it with data. For instance, we use this service in DekiWiki to index pages and attachments. Whenever a page is changed, DekiWki sends the new contents for indexing to the service, which is then later used for processing search queries.

So, the short answer is: yes, it can inded anything you like, it's just a matter of how much effort you want to put in to feed it with the necessary information.
