Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-2167:
-------------------------------------
bq. I just tend to really like plain old "uax#29" as a default [...] i would
prefer if we tried to keep the complexity down
So we're talking about two separate issues here: a) Lucene's default behavior;
and b) Lucene's capabilities.
For a), you'll have a lot of 'splaining to do if you drop existing
functionality (e.g. email and hostname "recognition" -- where quotes indicate
"bad" things, right? "Cool"!)
For b), you appear to agree with Marvin Humphries about keeping the product
lean and mean: complexity (a.k.a. functionality beyond the default) is bad
because it creates maintenance problems.
bq. we should try to not make analysis the "wonder-do-it-all" machine.
Why not? Why shouldn't Lucene be a catch-*all* for "cool" linguistic stuff?

> It would be really nice for StandardTokenizer to adhere straight to the
> standard as much as we can with jflex. Then its name would actually make
> sense.
> Such a transition would involve renaming the old StandardTokenizer to
> EuropeanTokenizer, as its javadoc claims:
> bq. This should be a good tokenizer for most European-language documents
> The new StandardTokenizer could then say
> bq. This should be a good tokenizer for most languages.
> All the english/euro-centric stuff like the acronym/company/apostrophe stuff
> can stay with that EuropeanTokenizer, and it could be used by the european
> analyzers.
