Solr 1.4.1 is a bug-fix release. No new features.

Here's the list of bugs that were fixed.

* SOLR-1934: Upgrade to Apache Lucene 2.9.3 to obtain several bug
fixes from the previous 2.9.1. See the Lucene 2.9.3 release notes
for details. (hossman, Mark Miller)

* SOLR-1432: Make the new ValueSource.getValues(context,reader) delegate
to the original ValueSource.getValues(reader) so custom sources
will work. (yonik)

* SOLR-1572: FastLRUCache correctly implemented the LRU policy only
for the first 2B accesses. (yonik)

* SOLR-1595: StreamingUpdateSolrServer used the platform default character
set when streaming updates, rather than using UTF-8 as the HTTP headers
indicated, leading to an encoding mismatch. (hossman, yonik)

* SOLR-1660: CapitalizationFilter crashes if you use the maxWordCountOption
(Robert Muir via shalin)

* SOLR-1662: Added Javadocs in BufferedTokenStream and fixed incorrect cloning
in TestBufferedTokenStream (Robert Muir, Uwe Schindler via shalin)

* SOLR-1711: SolrJ – StreamingUpdateSolrServer had a race condition that
could halt the streaming of documents. The original patch to fix this
(never officially released) introduced another hanging bug due to
connections not being released. (Attila Babo, Erik Hetzner via yonik)

* SOLR-1748, SOLR-1747, SOLR-1746, SOLR-1745, SOLR-1744: Streams and Readers
retrieved from ContentStreams are not closed in various places, resulting
in file descriptor leaks.
(Christoff Brill, Mark Miller)

* SOLR-1580: Solr Configuration ignores 'mergeFactor' parameter, always
uses Lucene default. (Lance Norskog via Mark Miller)

* SOLR-1777: fieldTypes with sortMissingLast=true or sortMissingFirst=true can
result in incorrectly sorted results. (yonik)

* SOLR-1797: fix ConcurrentModificationException and potential memory
leaks in ResourceLoader. (yonik)

* SOLR-1798: Small memory leak (~100 bytes) in fastLRUCache for every
commit. (yonik)

* SOLR-1522: Show proper message if script tag is missing for DIH
ScriptTransformer (noble)

* SOLR-1538: Reordering of object allocations in ConcurrentLRUCache to eliminate
(an extremely small) potential for deadlock.
(gabriele renzi via hossman)

* SOLR-1558: QueryElevationComponent only works if the uniqueKey field is
implemented using StrField. In previous versions of Solr no warning or
error would be generated if you attempted to use QueryElevationComponent,
it would just fail in unexpected ways. This has been changed so that it
will fail with a clear error message on initialization. (hossman)

* SOLR-1563: Binary fields, including trie-based numeric fields, caused null
pointer exceptions in the luke request handler. (yonik)

* SOLR-1579: Fixes to XML escaping in stats.jsp
(David Bowen and hossman)

* SOLR-1582: copyField was ignored for BinaryField types (gsingers)

* SOLR-1596: A rollback operation followed by the shutdown of Solr
or the close of a core resulted in a warning:
"SEVERE: SolrIndexWriter was not closed prior to finalize()" although
there were no other consequences. (yonik)

* SOLR-1651: Fixed Incorrect dataimport handler package name in SolrResourceLoader
(Akshay Ukey via shalin)

* SOLR-1936: The JSON response format needed to escape unicode code point
U+2028 – 'LINE SEPARATOR' (Robert Hofstra, yonik)

* SOLR-1852: Fix WordDelimiterFilterFactory bug where position increments
were not being applied properly to subwords. (Peter Wolanin via Robert Muir)

* SOLR-1706: fixed WordDelimiterFilter for certain combinations of options
where it would output incorrect tokens. (Robert Muir, Chris Male)

* SOLR-1948: PatternTokenizerFactory should use parent's args (koji)

* SOLR-1870: Indexing documents using the 'javabin' format no longer
fails with a ClassCastException whenSolrInputDocuments contain field
values which are Collections or other classes that implement
Iterable. (noble, hossman)

* SOLR-1769 Solr 1.4 Replication – Repeater throwing NullPointerException (noble)
