Is Analyzer's interface mature and stable enough to break out? Massive patches which can't be applied easily... that doesn't seem like a good sign. On the other hand, if Analyzers are installed independently, they can have their own version, which could advance independently of Lucene. The need for matchVersion would go away in the context of analysis, to be replaced by a traditional versioning system which I think users would find easier to grok. Marvin Humphrey
