Andi Vajda commented on LUCENE-2981:
------------------------------------
Unless there are users, I'm +1 for removing db anytime.
Last time I fixed something there was for the Java version of db, a
contribution by someone else I haven't heard of in years.
I haven't heard from any users with questions or bug reports in a long time
either.

> Some of our contribs appear to be lacking for development/support or are
> missing tests. We should review whether they are even pertinent these days
> and potentially deprecate and remove them.
> One of the things we did in Mahout when bringing in Colt code was to mark all
> code that didn't have tests as @deprecated and then we removed the
> deprecation once tests were added. Those that didn't get tests added over
> about a 6 mos. period of time were removed.
> I would suggest taking a hard look at:
> ant
> db
> lucli
> swing
> (spatial should be gutted to some extent and moved to modules)
