Information For Committers

--------------------------

Under no circumstances should any new files be added to this directory

without careful consideration of how LICENSE.txt and NOTICE.txt in the

parent directory should be updated to reflect the addition.

Even if a Jar being added is from another Apache project, it should be

mentioned in NOTICE.txt, and may have additional Attribution or

Licencing information that also needs to be added to the appropriate

file.

---

If an existing Jar is replaced with a newer version, the same

consideration should be given as if it were an entirely new file:

verify that no updates need to be made to LICENSE.txt or NOTICE.txt

based on changes in the terms of the dependency being updated.

---

When adding a jar or updating an existing jar, be sure to include/update

xyz-LICENSE.txt and if applicable, xyz-NOTICE.txt. These files often

change across versions of the dependency, so when updating be SURE to

update them to the recent version. This also allows others to see

what changed with respect to licensing in the commit diff.

---

Any changes made to this directory should be noted in CHANGES.txt,

along with the specific version information. If the version is a

"snapshot" of another Apache project, include the SVN revision number.

---

When upgrading Lucene-Java Jars, remember to generate new Analysis

factories for any new Tokenizers or TokenFilters. See the wiki for

details...
