Sure; here are the two explanations (below). Your question made me go look
at the explanation more carefully again and (no) surprise, I discovered
that I
misspoke (miswrote) earlier; the two "found" terms are j2ee and soa,
which then makes my "concern" much less of one, since in both cases, the
"found" terms *are*
being boosted. So the very slight difference in score is not much to be
concerned about.
So I guess, "never mind". I did step through all the code and now have a
much better
understanding of the steps involved in calcuating the score---
Thanks
First the one for the query with db2 NOT boosted
