Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-4276:
------------------------------------

Sigh. I was hoping to get to consensus here.

As for the patch, if that comes from a file, I'd feel better to support it.

Few separate comments:
# Can we include some text in the message, describing why it's incompatible, 
such as a link to a JIRA issue / markmail thread?
# How do you know to recommend a specific build version?
#* Perhaps instead of recommending a version, we should include in the 
exception all the versions that are not supported? That way, we only commit to 
what we tested and is not supported.
#* I'm worried that we'll recommend a version that will later turn out to be 
broken, and won't remove the 'recommendation' text.
