I don't really think we should move any sandbox stuff into the core repository. But certainly it could be packaged for easy download and use somehow.
Unfortunately there are so many hours in my day for me to make it happen. The easiest way to make this happen is to get Gump to automate builds from the sandbox and publish its distributables for download. Any volunteers to make this happen? :)

It would be nice if these items in the sandbox would have a pre-compiled copy sitting somewhere easy to download. Highlighting seems to be a fairly common question on these lists from beginners, and having to go to cvs, check them out, and then compile them (when many don't have ant scripts) is a lot of extra places where things can go wrong.
The easiest way would be if all of these were put into an options package directly in the main lucene sources, and the normal build process would not build these. But if you wanted the options, there would be a new target you could call on the main lucene source that would build all of these options.
This way there is more of a chance that things will get maintained if used or dumped if not, rather than sitting and cluttering the Sandbox.

Not that my vote counts or is relevant at all, but +1 to not including it,
for the same reasons below. Let Lucene focus on what it does best, and
ensure it can support addons and plugins like the highlighter, rather than
folding them in.

nice little Jar, and just document it in the Lucene's xdocs?
I'm just thinking that highlighting is not something that is a
necessary feature, so why 'polute' the core that should stay lean as it
is today.
The same has been done with Snowball code.
I don't feel VERY strongly about this, but I do feel that not including
it in the core would be a better thing to do. Those who need it will
know how to get the highlighting jar and put it in their CLASSPATH.

Is everything cool licensing-wise with accepting this? Is it being offered to us to be included?
Just a quick glance at the code and the only thing I'd change is the default hilighting pre/post strings to be <b>/</b>, or perhaps even something even more general like <em>/</em> or <span class="hilighted">/</span> - but that is obviously just icing.
