Hi George,
There's been a sudden burst of activity lately on 2.9 development...
I know there are some biggish remaining features we may want to get
into 2.9:
* The new field cache (LUCENE-831; still being iterated/mulled),
* Possible major rework of Field / Document & index-time vs
search-time Document
* Applying filters via random-access API when possible & performant
(LUCENE-1536)
* Possible further optimizations to how collection works
(LUCENE-1593)
* Maybe breaking core + contrib into a more uniform set of modules
(and figuring out how Trie(Numeric)RangeQuery/Filter fits in here)
-- the Modularization uber-thread.
* Further improvements to near-realtime search (using RAMDir for
small recently flushed segments)
* Many other small things and probably some big ones that I'm
forgetting now :)
So things are still in flux, and I'm really not sure on a release date
at this point. Late last year, I was hoping for early this year, but
it's no longer early this year ;)
