Yes I agree it's confusing. I think that was my first line ;) Still I think - having had some experience with it - that you should be able to use it as it is to solve your issue. > >> we're late now and in need of a stable release. > > Right.

I attacked Lucene 4 yesterday night to get a feeling of it; there's no way we can have backwards compatibility on the horizon. On that subject, since I'm having a branch with some ~5,000 lines of code changed already I'd appreciate a full ban of whitespace changes until we merge it :-) I could solve the first ~900 compile errors in a couple of hours, but the remaining ~700 errors are getting harder and harder.. fun but had to shelve the changes and focus on 4.2.
