Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-6180:
--------------------------------------------
This is a rather internal class? If we do move to util and make it public I
think it should remain @lucene.internal?
I also don't like that it ... encourages top-level reader usage. Lucene only
uses this for merging I think.
What sort of times did you need to use it?
> Make BitsSlice public (not package-private)

> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Smiley
> Priority: Minor
>
> org.apache.lucene.index.BitsSlice is a simple and generic utility class. I've
> found a need to use and it'd be nice if it were public but it's currently
> package-private. It should go to the util package, and the constructor
> taking ReaderSlice cold be removed.
> In Java 8, it'd be neat to have a Bits.subSlice default method simply
> calling-out to this but no big deal.
