Christian Moen commented on LUCENE-4947:
----------------------------------------
Kevin,
I think it's best that you do the license change yourself and that we don't
have any active role in making the change since you are the only person
entitled to make the change.
This change can be done by using the below header on all the source code and
other relevant text files:
{noformat}

After this has been done, please make a tarball and attach it to this JIRA and
indicate that this is the code you wish to grant and also inform us about the
MD5 hash of the tarball. (This will go into the IP-clearance document and will
be used to identify the codebase.)
It's a good idea to also use this MD5 hash as part of Exhibit A in the
[software-grant.txt|http://www.apache.org/licenses/software-grant.txt]
agreement unless you have signed and submitted this already. (If you donate
the code yourself by attaching it to the JIRA as described above, I believe the
hashes not being part of Exhibit A is acceptable.)
Please feel free to add your comments, Steve.
> Java implementation (and improvement) of Levenshtein & associated lexicon

>
> Key: LUCENE-4947
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4947
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 4.0-ALPHA, 4.0-BETA, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.1
> Reporter: Kevin Lawson
>
> I was encouraged by Mike McCandless to open an issue concerning this after I
> contacted him privately about it. Thanks Mike!
> I'd like to submit my Java implementation of the Levenshtein Automaton as a
> homogenous replacement for the current heterogenous, multi-component
> implementation in Lucene.
> Benefits of upgrading include
> - Reduced code complexity
> - Better performance from components that were previously implemented in
> Python
> - Support for on-the-fly dictionary-automaton manipulation (if you wish to
> use my dictionary-automaton implementation)
> The code for all the components is well structured, easy to follow, and
> extensively commented. It has also been fully tested for correct
> functionality and performance.
> The levenshtein automaton implementation (along with the required MDAG
> reference) can be found in my LevenshteinAutomaton Java library here:
> https://github.com/klawson88/LevenshteinAutomaton.
> The minimalistic directed acyclic graph (MDAG) which the automaton code uses
> to store and step through word sets can be found here:
> https://github.com/klawson88/MDAG
> *Transpositions aren't currently implemented. I hope the comment filled,
> editing-friendly code combined with the fact that the section in the Mihov
> paper detailing transpositions is only 2 pages makes adding the functionality
> trivial.
> *As a result of support for on-the-fly manipulation, the MDAG
> (dictionary-automaton) creation process incurs a slight speed penalty. In
> order to have the best of both worlds, i'd recommend the addition of a
> constructor which only takes sorted input. The complete, easy to follow
> pseudo-code for the simple procedure can be found in the first article I
> linked under the references section in the MDAG repository)
