Hi,
A number of us have been iterating on a PR to bump the Lucene main branch to a minimum of Java 21 [1]. The work is in a good state and is almost ready to commit.
While the changes themselves are not large, the impact is arguably larger. So I’m raising awareness here with the wider group.
Clearly one could conflate the bump to Java 21 with the question of when will Lucene have a next major release, but those issues, while somewhat related, are orthogonal. My position is that the next Lucene major should be on Java 21, regardless of when that will happen.
Comments, feedback, suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
-Chris.
