Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1390:
-------------------------------------
In regards to deprecating ISOLatin1AccentFilter: what are the back
compatibility issues? What is the likelyhood that a forced upgrade to this
class would lose words in the index without a reindex?
If its a real concern, we could keep the deprecated class until 3.0, but that
still wouldn't help anyone that wanted to move to 3 from 2 without a reindex
(if thats something we will maintain on 3).
So I'm just exploring for comments, but maybe we leave both classes?

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Analysis
> Environment: any

> Assignee: Mark Miller
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.9
>
> Attachments: ASCIIFoldingFilter.patch, ASCIIFoldingFilter.patch,

>
>
> The ISOLatin1AccentFilter is removing accents from accented characters in the
> ISO Latin 1 character set.
> It does what it does and there is no bug with it.
> It would be nicer, though, if there was a more comprehensive version of this
> code that included not just ISO-Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) but the entire Latin 1
> and Latin Extended A unicode blocks.
> See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin-1_Supplement_unicode_block
> See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_Extended-A_unicode_block
> That way, all languages using roman characters are covered.
> A new class, ISOLatinAccentFilter is attached. It is intended to supercede
> ISOLatin1AccentFilter which should get deprecated.
