Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-4190:
-------------------------------------
bq. pretty sure I have the right to revert my own commit.
Once something is in the code base, it doesn't matter who committed it - all
the same rules apply. That it's your commit doesn't change anything. Unless you
went insane and started threatening license revoking type...oh wait...
bq. I can declare the licensing of asl2 as a mistake and instead full gpl if we
want to press the point?
You can't be on the PMC and play games like this if you ask me. Being on the
PMC means you have an obligation to act above this. Are we going back to the
revert wars now?
As far as I can tell you are trying to act like a dictator on this issue. You
contribute a lot to Lucene, but you are not the dictator. Why do you need to
*demand* that certain things happen as you prescribe? Why do you need to make
threats about revoking licenses?
This issue should be about consensus, not bullying.
Are you kidding me dude?
I hope you start working with the community and stop trying to step on it. Your
stance is far too often, it's Roberts way or the highway if you ask me.

> IndexWriter will now (as of 4.0) delete all foreign files from the index
> directory. We made this change because Codecs are free to write to any files
> now, so the space of filenames is hard to "bound".
> But if the user accidentally uses the wrong directory (eg c:/) then we will
> in fact delete important stuff.
> I think we can at least use some simple criteria (must start with _, maybe
> must fit certain pattern eg _<base36>(_X).Y), so we are much less likely to
> delete a non-Lucene file....
