You're right, that isn't very intuitive. The Reader is designed to support larger documents, which you probably don't want to store. We could deprecate Text(String,Reader) and add UnStored(String,Reader), which would be tokenized and indexed but not stored. That would be more consistent naming. Do folks think it's worth it to do this? > PS: when does the switch over to apache.org take place? I understand > the CVS at SourceForge is already out of date.

If we could get a machine-readable version of the sourceforge lists then we could automatically subscribe everyone to the jakarta lists, but I have not found such a machine-readable version. Instead I have just sent out messages asking folks to add themselves to the jakarta lists. That should be good enough. I have updated things at sourceforge so that folks who post messages are told to join the jakarta lists. I've also made the sourceforge lists non-public, so that new folks won't subscribe. Finally, I can add the sourceforge lists to the jakarta lists, so that folks who don't make the move won't start missing messages. This also takes advantage of Sourceforge's email archives. So folks who add themselves to the jakarta lists should unsubscribe from the sourceforge lists so that they don't see things twice. I've only done this for lucene-dev so far. (To unsubscribe from the sourceforge list, visit http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lucene-dev.) I'll send a more coherent message to lucene-users when the dust has settled a bit. I don't want to spam that list with lots of details.
