Hi there, We are a user of the Lucene core library in our product.
With the release of Lucene 9.0.0 in Dec 07 2021 (https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.lucene/lucene-core/9.0.0), we were wondering what the future support model for version 8 of the library will be? Will it be discontinued now that 9.0x is available or maintained into the future in parallel with V9? Does the Lucene project have a version 8 support cut-off date in mind? I do see that a recent release of version 8 of the library (8.11.2, https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.lucene/lucene-core/8.11.2) on Jun 18, 2022 so perhaps this indicates that version 8 will be supported for the foreseeable future? Regards, Fergal.
