Michael McCandless resolved LUCENE-325.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I just committed this.  Thanks John!  And sorry for the looooong
delay.

I also added an "these APIs are experimental" warning on top of
MergePolicy and MergeScheduler (which I should have done before
2.3 :(, though I don't expect alot of usage of these).

> We make use the docIDs in lucene. I need a way to compact the docIDs in 
> segments
> to remove the "holes" created from doing deletes. The only way to do this is 
> by
> calling IndexWriter.optimize(). This is a very heavy call, for the cases where
> the index is large but with very small number of deleted docs, calling 
> optimize
> is not practical.
> I need a new method: expungeDeleted(), which finds all the segments that have
> delete documents and merge only those segments.
> I have implemented this method and have discussed with Otis about submitting a
> patch. I don't see where I can attached the patch. I will do according to the
> patch guidleine and email the lucene mailing list.
