librengine

What we couldn't confirm4
- Whether the project is currently usable, since the README says it will not be maintained and points to a successor project.
- Whether any public instance is running, since the Instances section is empty.
- Whether it offers real-time or full-web coverage comparable to the named search engines.
- Whether Yahoo!, Yandex and Ecosia were intended as replacements, as the material given does not mention them.
