that CacheGrams inner Filter classe seemed like it could be extracted easily enough. : This is a critique that has been heard a lot (mainly because its true :) : It would be really cool if different camps of lucene could build these : nice utilities to be usable between projects. Not exactly sure how this : could be accomplished but anyway something to consider. [EMAIL PROTECTED] is probably the best place to raise this discussion if you're interested in pursuing it ... i think the best way to deal with it may just be on a case by case basis ... if you find cool code in sub-project XYZ, start by working with XYZ-dev to refactor it into an extractable chunk, then work with java-dev to "promote" it up in the lucene Java code base, and then circle back to XYZ-dev to deprecate the copy in the XYZ code repository and replace it with a dependency on the newly promoted version. -Hoss
