[Sandri Francesco]

Greetings, we are a group of students attending a course of Information 
Retrival at the University of Padua. We are interested to have many 
informations about Xapian:
- the posting file data structure;
- if there is any index compression and what type;
- what are standard ID schemes (DOI, URI, Purl, etc.);
- if Xapian builds any authority files;
- if the system manage term polysemy (lexical ambiguity);

Thanks for all the time you dedicate us.
