Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2628:
------------------------------------

I think a util jar is a great idea but not so we can publish it for others.  As 
we modularise more, there will be utility classes that are useful across 
multiple modules.  I dont think they should be stuck into lucene-core just 
because its the only consistent dependency.  But I don't think OBS fits into 
this pool necessary since it really is tuned for the search func in lucene-core.

But I'll fight this fight in another issue when I propose such a module :)

> o.a.l.util.OpenBitSet is a great alternative to java.util.BitSet, and it is 
> generally useful outside of the search field. It would be great if OpenBitSet 
> were available outside of Lucene proper, perhaps as part of Apache Commons.
> Aside from the communication required to accomplish this, there is the small 
> issue of OpenBitSet extending o.a.l.search.DocIdSet in Lucene 3.0. There is 
> very little logic contained in DocIdSet, so it could probably become an 
> interface: Lucene proper could then extend the extract version of OpenBitSet 
> to implement DocIdSet.
