Description Chris Goldthorpe CLA 2011-06-22 16:58:00 EDT
The extension point org.eclipse.help.base.luceneSearchParticipants which has already been deprecated should be removed from Eclipse. This will allow us to also remove the reexport of the Lucene packages. The major version of org.eclipse.help.base should be incremented at the same time.
