Hi, I'm just writing to ask if you know if the the change discussed below is likely to be in the next version of Lucene as a default for StopFilter. I'm happy to apply the diff supplied by Mike Barry on my own source code to stop "climate control" matching "climate of control", but if its likely to go into the new version soon I'll hold off and and download that.

Making it optional is ok by me, though I'm curious about a use case that would prefer it the way it is now. Searching for "lucene in action" and having it match documents with "lucene action" in them seems awkward to me in a precision context. Google allows wildcarding of words with an asterisk: <http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=%22lucene+* +action%22&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8> Erik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
