Right, the javadocs are for the nightly build. See the Site Versions section of http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html for releases.

Unreleased stuff should only be linked to in a "developer" section of the website. Right now the primary javadoc links on the website are to unreleased documentation. We should fix this.

Unreleased versions of software and documentation are not meant to be published under the Apache license. This permits us a review of what's released, so that if something were to enter subversion that should not be released, we have an opportunity to remove it. Thus we must maintain a clear line between what we expect the general public to download and view under the license, and the draft versions that we, the developer community, share amongst ourselves. Publishing unreleased things in a way that could be perceived as an official publication for end-users could weaken our control of what is licensed.
