I'm all for a refactor of the scoring strategy. A single interface attached to the index that takes care of it all. > Is this at all doable?

I have no deep knowledge of the scoring mechanism, but the current classes are heavily couple by how the boosts work. It would require a huge amount of deprication. I would start with creating the new interface Index, inherited by Directory or any other top level index implementation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
