include the changes from 1.4.2 (this makes sense from the user's point of
view I think) but try not to list an item twice

3. Added support for position and offset information in term vectors
(patch #18927). (Grant Ingersoll & Christoph)
- 4. FuzzyQuery now takes an additional parameter that specifies the
- minimum similarity that is required for a term to match the query.
- The QueryParser syntax for this is term~x, where x is a floating
- point number >= 0 and < 1 (a bigger number means that a higher
- similarity is required). Furthermore, a prefix can be specified
- for FuzzyQuerys so that only those terms are considered similar that
- start with this prefix. This can speed up FuzzyQuery greatly.

- 5. PhraseQuery and PhrasePrefixQuery now allow the explicit specification
- of relative positions. (Christoph Goller)

+ 4. A new class DateTools has been added. It allows you to format dates
in a readable format adequate for indexing. Unlike the existing
DateField class DateTools can cope with dates before 1970 and it
forces you to specify the desired date resolution (e.g. month, day,
second, ...) which can make RangeQuerys on those fields more efficient.

+ 5. QueryParser now correctly works with Analyzers that can return more
than one token per position. For example, a query "+fast +car"
would be parsed as "+fast +(car automobile)" if the Analyzer
returns "car" and "automobile" at the same position whenever it
finds "car" (Patch #23307).

still somewhat slower than FSDirectory. However it uses less
memory per query term, since a new buffer is not allocated per
term, which may help applications which use, e.g., wildcard
queries. It may also someday be faster. (cutting & Paul Elschot)

Bug fixes

+ 1. The JSP demo page (src/jsp/results.jsp) now properly escapes error
messages which might contain user input (e.g. error messages about
query parsing). If you used that page as a starting point for your
own code please make sure your code also properly escapes HTML
characters from user input in order to avoid so-called cross site
scripting attacks. (Daniel Naber)
