Hi All, I'm Billy, a senior undergraduate student in Peking University. I'm working in the area of Information Retrieval and Web Mining. When going through the idea list, I felt quite interested in the LUCENE-3892<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3892>and LUCENE-3069 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3069>. I am very proficient on java, and have been using lucene for about one year. I am looking forward to make a contribution to this project.
Here, I have a few questions about lucene: First of all, which version of lucene shall we use as a start point? The trunk or 3.5? Is there any demo codes to show the idea of Codecs? How many posting formats are supposed to be implemented, for project LUCENE-3892 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3892> ? Is there any further documentation for LUCENE-3069<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3069>? Thank you! -- Han Jiang EECS, Peking University, China Every Effort Creates Smile Senior Student
