Grant, in this case the new contribution does not require any deprecation, it is another implementation for regex and wildcard query that works a bit differently than the others.
Not to stray off-topic, but your comment does apply to RussianLowerCaseFilter, which is currently marked deprecated in 3.0. Until the custom-encoding junk (deprecated in 2.9) was removed, I couldn't easily tell that it was simply a duplicate of LowerCaseFilter... for now its marked deprecated in 3.0 to be removed in 4.0 On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 4:00 PM, Grant Ingersoll <gsing...@apache.org>wrote: > How do you handle deprecations of old stuff for the new contribution > (assuming it needs it)?
