The procedure is the same for both bugs and new features - you may already know about the wiki page that describes this, but just in case: <http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/HowToContribute> > On the other hand, it is java 1.5 compatible. Even > developments in contrib, that are rather independent, > must be java 1.4 compatible? Actually, the policy is now that code in contrib can be java 1.5 (or 1.4) compatible. The 1.4 compatibility requirement applies only to non-contrib code. (Note to self: fix the HowToContribute page to note this fact.)
