----------------------------------------
Hi Christian, please go.
> Move Kuromoji to analysis.ja and introduce Japanese* naming
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-3909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3909
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/analysis
> Affects Versions: 3.6, 4.0
> Reporter: Christian Moen
> Assignee: Christian Moen
>
> Lucene/Solr 3.6 and 4.0 will get out-of-the-box Japanese language support
> through {{KuromojiAnalyzer}}, {{KuromojiTokenizer}} and various other
> filters. These filters currently live in
> {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.kuromoji}}.
> I'm proposing that we move Kuromoji to a new Japanese package
> {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.ja}} in line with how other languages are
> organized. As part of this, I also think we should rename
> {{KuromojiAnalyzer}} to {{JapaneseAnalyzer}}, etc. to further align naming to
> our conventions by making it very clear that these analyzers are for
> Japanese. (As much as I like the name "Kuromoji", I think "Japanese" is more
> fitting.)
> A potential issue I see with this that I'd like to raise and get feedback on,
> is that end-users in Japan and elsewhere who use lucene-gosen could have
> issues after an upgrade since lucene-gosen is in fact releasing its analyzers
> under the {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.ja}} namespace (and we'd have a name
> clash).
> I believe users should have the freedom to choose whichever Japanese
> analyzer, filter, etc. they'd like to use, and I don't want to propose a name
> change that just creates unnecessary problems for users, but I think the
> naming proposed above is most fitting for a Lucene/Solr release.
