DM Smith commented on LUCENE-2055:
----------------------------------
I think it is right to fix bad behavior, but such a change is not bw compat. It
will require an index rebuild.
I'm happy with the direction that non-english work is going. I'm hoping that
once it is solid that the bw compat policy will be strict as core. (whatever
that means ;) For any application of Lucene that handles many different
languages, it is critical that this "stuff" is stable and solid.
