Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-1758:
-------------------------------------
i think it is probably ready, the only other easy improvement I can think of
at the moment is perhaps both this and LUCENE-1628 should include
LowerCaseFilter.
This has nothing to do with Arabic (it does not have case) but just
user-friendliness for English content that is encountered.
example from java-user:

> improve arabic analyzer: light8 -> light10

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/analyzers
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Assignee: Michael McCandless
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.9

> Someone mentioned on the java user list that the arabic analysis was not as
> good as they would like.
> This patch adds the لل- prefix (light10 algorithm versus light8 algorithm).
> In the light10 paper, this improves precision from .390 to .413
> They mention this is not statistically significant, but it makes linguistic
> sense and at least has been shown not to hurt.
> In the future, I hope openrelevance will allow us to try some more
> approaches.
