I'd guess the worry is that new features in 3.0 would add new deprecations and its not quite so clean?
Personally, I think thats fine though. New deprecations will come in 3.1 anyway. You can still move everything in 2.9, and then move to 3.0 - so what if something else is now deprecated? You can move again or wait for 3.9 to move ... -- - Mark http://www.lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
