Korfut, Tatu (if you're watching),

I'm trying to understand what this term collector idea is all about, so
I looked online for some of your previous discussions on this topic
from March 2003.  So this patches that both of you sent to lucene-dev
at some point both implement a term collector.
What terms do your term collectors collect, could you explain that in
simple terms, and with an example, please? (I almost broke one of the
walls in my apartment, when I accidentally smacked it with my head 10
minutes ago)

If I make a BooleanQuery: Laurel AND Hardy
What is I make a WildcardQuery: Comed*
What terms would your collector collect and return in each case?

I only saw Tatu's diff to the existing classes, and noticed that his
solution includes 5-6 new classes.

Thanks,
Otis
