> Move Kuromoji to analysis.ja and introduce Japanese* naming

> Key: LUCENE-3909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3909
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/analysis
> Affects Versions: 3.6, 4.0
> Reporter: Christian Moen
> Assignee: Christian Moen

> Lucene/Solr 3.6 and 4.0 will get out-of-the-box Japanese language support through {{KuromojiAnalyzer}},
{{KuromojiTokenizer}} and various other filters. These filters currently live in {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.kuromoji}}.
> I'm proposing that we move Kuromoji to a new Japanese package {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.ja}}
in line with how other languages are organized. As part of this, I also think we should rename
{{KuromojiAnalyzer}} to {{JapaneseAnalyzer}}, etc. to further align naming to our conventions
by making it very clear that these analyzers are for Japanese. (As much as I like the name
"Kuromoji", I think "Japanese" is more fitting.)
> A potential issue I see with this that I'd like to raise and get feedback on, is that
end-users in Japan and elsewhere who use lucene-gosen could have issues after an upgrade since
lucene-gosen is in fact releasing its analyzers under the {{org.apache.lucene.analysis.ja}}
namespace (and we'd have a name clash).
> I believe users should have the freedom to choose whichever Japanese analyzer, filter,
etc. they'd like to use, and I don't want to propose a name change that just creates unnecessary
problems for users, but I think the naming proposed above is most fitting for a Lucene/Solr
release.
