Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3977:
-------------------------------------
Besides the trivial patch above (which I think we should do), looking at the
big picture
with the 2x duplication, I really think we should totally nuke these
javadocs-all tasks.
Really if we have different modules like contrib-analyzers, why can't they link
to
the things they depend on (e.g. lucene-core) just like the solr javadocs do?
This is just a matter of fixing the build system and then working towards making
our downloads reasonable right?

> Key: LUCENE-3977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3977
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: general/javadocs
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 4.0
>
>
> Some stats for the generated javadocs of 3.6:
> * 9,146 files
> * 161,872 KB uncompressed
> * 25MB compressed (this is responsible for nearly half of our binary release)
> The fact we intentionally double our javadocs size with the 'javadocs-all'
> thing
> is truly wasteful and compression doesn't help at all. Just testing, i nuked
> 'all'
> and found:
> * 4,944 files
> * 81,084 KB uncompressed
> * 12.8MB compressed
> We need to clean this up for 4.0. We only need to ship javadocs 'one way'.
