Otis and I certainly appreciate the interest! And I have been spending some time recently contemplating this effort. A 2nd edition of a book is perhaps the most painful thing to contemplate, even more so than a root canal. With both of us busier than we ever have been, it is a challenge to carve non-existent time out of a calendar.

However, rest assured that I am committed to making LIA2 happen. Just this week I have refactored the LIA codebase to compile cleanly with no deprecation warnings and ensuring that all tests pass once again (there were a few that were demonstrating edge case issues in Lucene 1.4.3 that have been resolved in the current codebase).

Lucene 1.9.1 works fine with the LIA1 codebase, so I'm going to leave that as-is, but when Lucene 2.0 officially comes out I will release an updated example codebase (for free, as always) that is entirely geared for 2.0. Also, I'm in the process of spec'ing out a document that describes the process of upgrading a project from 1.4.3 to 1.9.1 to 2.0 and showcasing all of the new features. How this document is released/published is still undecided, perhaps free to all registered LIA owners (?).

I would like to optimistically say that LIA2 could be completed this year, but I'm wary of over-promising knowing the challenges involved. I am committed to making it happen as soon as reasonably possible though.
