Some others (if you don't mind): 1. make package protected abtract methods of org.apache.lucene.search.Searcher to public (I'd like to be able to make subclasses of Searcher, IndexWriter, InderReader ) 2. add lastModified() method to Directory, FSDirectory and RamDirectory (so it could be cached in IndexWriter/Searcher manager) 3. support for adding more than 1 term to the same position (I'm sorry I didn't find Doug's email about this)
