The Apache Lucene team is voting on candidate releases for Lucene 6.0.0. As usual we'll refrain from making API changes in a minor release, but we should start to sometimes try building against Lucene 6 to make sure to use APIs which will live longer, if there's choice. The most notable change is an entirely new strategy to handle numeric fields; including overhauled APIs. I guess Hibernate Search 6 will probably want to align with Lucene 6 and Hibernate ORM 6; only problem I see with that is I hope people won't get used to these all being nicely aligned as it's probably not sustainable as a rule.. just luck so far (although we managed that with all of the 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and now 6 series of Hibernate Search!). Both Lucene 6 and ORM 6 will require Java 8. I'll update the Search roadmap to reflect this aim, as I assume there won't be concerns?

Apart from migration concerns, is anything in Lucene 6 allowing us to provide new exciting functionality to users?
