Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1349:
--------------------------------------------
Looks good Grant.
Maybe cancel out the double-negative in:
bq. It will, however, not mean that a new version of the Lucene can't read an
old version within the same major version.
to something like this (rough draft)?
This change only affects the Fieldable API; other backwards
compatibility promises remain intact. For example, Lucene can still
read and write indices created within the same major version.
> Mark Fieldable as allowing some changes in 2.x future releases

> 1. We mark Fieldable as being subject to change. We heavily advertise (on
> java-dev and java-user and maybe general) that in the next minor release of
> Lucene (2.4), Fieldable will be changing. It is also marked at the top of
> CHANGES.txt very clearly for all the world to see. Since 2.4 is probably at
> least a month away, I think this gives anyone with a pulse enough time to
> react.
