-------------------------------------

Hi Shai, thanks for reviewing!
I agree about making read() public, and same for parseDate().
As we discussed offline the interface with TrecParser is not ideal - I looked 
at the option we discussed to have the TrecContentSource just read everything 
between <Doc> and </Doc> and then let the TrecDocParser do everything - in one 
call to it - but as this would mean going through the data 3 times (comparing 
to 2 times today) this is not appealing either and I rather stay with the two 
methods interface for now.

> The benchmarking utilities for  TREC test collections (http://trec.nist.gov) 
> are quite limited and do not support some of the variations in format of 
> older TREC collections.  
> I have been doing some benchmarking work with Lucene and have had to modify 
> the package to support:
> * Older TREC document formats, which the current parser fails on due to 
> missing document headers.
> * Variations in query format - newlines after <title> tag causing the query 
> parser to get confused.
> * Ability to detect and read in uncompressed text collections
> * Storage of document numbers by default without storing full text.
> I can submit a patch if there is interest, although I will probably want to 
> write unit tests for the new functionality first.
