Hello all,

Currently OAK is using a very old version of lucene (4.7) for it's indices
of type "lucene". There have been different attempts in upgrading lucene to
newer versions but this have not succeeded and with time this has become
more complicated. Recently (see apache#2817
<https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-oak/pull/2817>) a new approach to
solving the issue was not to upgrade lucene but rather reimplement a new
type of index directly based on a more recent version of lucene (9+) with
in mind to make the code base easier to upgrade (also noting that since 4.7
the lucene SPIs have stabilized).

We've set up a poll here https://github.com/orgs/oak-indexing/discussions/1289
t <https://github.com/orgs/oak-indexing/discussions/1289>o get your
thoughts on this.

Best,
Benjamin
