Right - Lucene Core, Modules, Solr are all the same project. We're only coming up with these different labels because some of the parts may be downloaded and/or documented separately (and have a pre-existing brand associated with that). So distinct labels make sense for Lucene and Solr, but not for contrib and not for Modules (at least not yet). I understand Steven's concern too - the download for "Lucene Core" is likely to have contrib stuff for some time to come, so there would logically be "core" and "contrib" parts to "Lucene Core". Although in practice, I don't think that little bit of ambiguity is likely to cause problems. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com
