Doug Cutting commented on LUCENE-500:
-------------------------------------

I think we should commit this, except leave DateField deprecated rather than 
remove it, since that is the promise made.  We should probably remove that 
promise, however, so that we can eventually remove it.

We said we'd remove all deprecated code, and we won't.  But that won't break 
anyone who compiles in 1.9.1 without deprecation warnings, which is the more 
important promise.

Then we'll have a proto-2.0 release for developers to test.  We can separately 
decide how to handle dates in the QueryParser.  It would not be wrong to 
continue doing the same thing we've done in 1.9, would it?  That won't break 
anyone.

In short, let's not let this issue stop us from removing all of the other 
deprecated code and finding out whether anything else breaks.
