Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2628:
-------------------------------------

bq. Should be pretty strong reasons to break things out into modules. I don't 
want to have to piece together 15 tiny jars every time i write a some simple 
lucene code.

I agree. an example that might fit this case would be queryparsing: 
* there is a mix of functionality strewn across lucene/solr. 
* most of them are 99% the same and differ only in one small piece
* its a back compat nightmare (given javacc grammars etc)
* functionality and consistency lags behind, maybe due to the above: e.g. lack 
of span support in most

for something like that, i wouldnt mind an additional jar if it was all cleaned 
up and organized into a module, where things like Version could be dropped
and it could evolve naturally: real versions and you just keep using the old 
jar if you want exact behavior.

> o.a.l.util.OpenBitSet is a great alternative to java.util.BitSet, and it is 
> generally useful outside of the search field. It would be great if OpenBitSet 
> were available outside of Lucene proper, perhaps as part of Apache Commons.
> Aside from the communication required to accomplish this, there is the small 
> issue of OpenBitSet extending o.a.l.search.DocIdSet in Lucene 3.0. There is 
> very little logic contained in DocIdSet, so it could probably become an 
> interface: Lucene proper could then extend the extract version of OpenBitSet 
> to implement DocIdSet.
