OK works for me too.
John or Jason, can you update the patch on LUCENE-1743? We no longer
need to implement Externalizable (just add fixed SUIDs), but we do
need to update the javadocs for all classes implementing Serializable
to state that cross-version compatibility is not guaranteed.

Again, I agree it is not the perfect solution. I am comparing that
to the current behavior, I don't think it is worse. (Only in my
opinion).
So, if it's good enough for you, a user of java serialization, then
perhaps those of us who don't use java serialization shouldn't
complain. I think we'd want to add to the documentation something
to the effect that this is all that's been done, and that if the
classes change substantially then all bets are off. We do not want
to imply that we're making any cross-version compatibility
guarantees about serialization, rather just that folks who're
willing to take their chances will not be impeded. Could something
like that work?
