2 years is hardly quick.  Performance, contributions from the vast
majority of the developer community, faster and more reliable
development, better compile-time error checking (generics), modern
api's...  I think these trump the concerns about legacy or niche
environments with poor java support.  Why should an environment that is
stuck in a dated java expect to run the latest and greatest lucene?
