Is there any chance to get the best of both worlds? Could we merge both together and preserve bw compat with version? Introducing another stemmer doing almost the same thing as an already existing one does is exactly what we try to prevent right now. I don't doubt that this issue is an improvement just thinking of a way to keep code duplication as low as possible.
I haven't looked at the code yet so if my question are completely nonsense let me know. simon On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 6:05 PM, Karl Wettin <karl.wet...@gmail.com> wrote: > > 31 dec 2009 kl. 17.43 skrev Simon Willnauer: > >> what is the essential difference between the existing and LUCENE-1515 >> stemmer? > > 1515 handles genitive case suffices better.
