Unfortunately I think its quite a ways away: there are branches for major features such as per-document payloads, realtime search, modern index compression algorithms, and a variety of other exciting things in the works. As far as releases go, currently we are working towards release 3.1, which is the next stable minor release upgrade from 3.0. It might be technically possible to backport this feature (per-field similarity) to the 3.x codebase while still keeping backwards compatibility, but I'm worried about breaking backwards compatibility in subtle ways due to some gremlins in the code... we fixed most of these gremlins in trunk but they are still available and deprecated in 3.1 (example: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2828). So, at the moment having this feature be something that has to wait until 4.0 is the safest option in my opinion... but I feel your pain here when trying to customize the scoring system... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
