There is a lot to be done, particularly norms and deleted documents. Some progress on norms is made on LUCENE-3606 (moved to codec, simpletext implementation) but its a stop-gap measure really until LUCENE-3622 and LUCENE-3074 are finished, then norms can be implemented via IndexDocValues APIs. I havent really investigated deleted documents yet, but it should be feasible after LUCENE-3606. Then there still remains things like the fact that codec cannot control how the compound file format is encoded and other minor issues. -- lucidimagination.com
