They are only marked as experimental not because they are unstable or something like that, it means the API may change suddenly (methods get removed and so on).

So it's more "subject to change" than "unstable". ----- Uwe Schindler H.-H.-Meier-Allee 63, D-28213 Bremen http://www.thetaphi.de eMail: uwe@thetaphi.de > -----Original Message----- > From: Ganesh [mailto:emailgane@yahoo.co.in] > Sent: Thursday, November 26, 2009 9:47 AM > To: java-user@lucene.apache.org > Subject: API changes in 2.9 > > Hello all, > > I am planning to upgrade from 2.4.1 to 2.9.1.
