Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2981:
-------------------------------------

The reason i havent committed the patch is because there doesn't seem to yet be 
consensus on what to do for 3.2

> Review and potentially remove unused/unsupported Contribs

> 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)
