----------------------------------------------------------------
One idea. We redfine the enum with the new syntax. In Lucene 4.x we may
additionally define the old constants as additional alias statics (+
deprecated) inside the enum? Java does not allow additional constants in an
enum that are identical to others, but we can maybe move the deprecated ones
between the real ones (like: {{LUCENE_4_0, @Deprecated LUCENE_40, LUCENE_4_1,
@Deprecated LUCENE_41}}, although I am not sure if they should come before or
after, but we can add magic to the version comparison functions:
{{onOrAfter()}} can accept both).
We must also fix the parseVersionLenient for use by Solr + ElasticSearch.

> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Muir

> We should fix this, otherwise the constants will be hard to read (e.g.
> Version.LUCENE_410, is it 4.1.0 or 4.10 or whatever).
> I do not want this to be an excuse for an arbitrary 5.0 release that does not
> have the features expected of a major release :)
