Indexes will not work???

I've upgraded a 3.6 index. I used the new Solrconfig from 4.0, and had
to do some hacking to my schema (e.g. add a version field) to make it
work, but once I'd done that, all was fine.

As I understand it, any Lucene instance can understand the format of an
index from one major version below. Thus, my 4.0 system could read the
index of my 3.6 cores, but the one core not updated since 1.4 it
couldn't read (and refused to load the core).

Optimising will cause your index to be rewritten in the new format, as
will waiting for background merges to happen. That's what I understand,
anyway.
