Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-3622:
-------------------------------------
bq. we had some arguments when merging from the docvalues branch into trunk
that the name is easy to be confused with DocValues in the function package
since they are both in core. This is where my statement comes from.
Yeah, I got that. I wasn't involved in that discussion, but if I was, I would
have argued that calling it IndexDocValues didn't help the situation much and
we should have just kept it as DocValues anyway. I just don't think because a
class moves to another lucene 'component' that it helps the situation any. I
still consider modules first class.
I'd also have argued that in 4 we should rename the function DocValues class to
something else. It's advanced to mess in that area, and people can handle a
change in a move to 4.

> Currently the o.a.l.index.values contains both the abstract apis and
> Lucene40's current implementation.
> I think we should move the implementation underneath Lucene40Codec, leaving
> only the abstract apis.
> For example, simpletext might have a different implementation, and we might
> make a int8 implementation
> underneath preflexcodec to support norms.
