- Lucene 6.1.0 Release Highlights:
+ Lucene 6.2.0 Release Highlights:
  
  New features
-   * Numerous improvements to LatLonPoint, for indexing a latitude/longitude point and searching by polygon, distance or box, or finding nearest neighbors
-   * Geo3D now has simple APIs for creating common shape queries, matching LatLonPoint
+   * Index numeric ranges (min and max value in a single field) and search by overlapping range
+   * IndexWriter methods return a sequence number indicating order of operations
+   * UkrainianMorfologikAnalyzer is a new dictionary based analyzer for the Ukrainian language
+   * The Polygon class can now be created from a GeoJSON string
+   * Compound file creation now verifies checksum of its component files
+   * Index time sorting is now a core feature, and supports dimensional points
+   * The CREATE_NEW flag is passed when creating a file to ensure Lucene is really write-once
+   * StandardAnalyzer is moved to core and is the default analyzer
+   * MatchNoDocsQuery now includes the reason it was created
+   * QueryParser can now be told to not pre-split on whitespace
+   * MMapDirectory tries harder to prevent SIGSEGV, but it's still best effort
  
  Optimizations
+   * Conjunction (MUST, FILTER) queries are faster
+   * Dimensional points have much faster (~40%) flush time and use less space in the index
-   * Faster indexing and searching of points.
-   * Faster geo-spatial indexing and searching for LatLonPoint, Geo3D and GeoPoint (see http://home.apache.org/~mikemccand/geobench.html )
-   * HardlinkCopyDirectoryWrapper optimizes file copies using hard links
-   * In case of contention, the query cache now prefers returning an uncached Scorer rather than waiting on a lock.
  
+ Along with numerous bug fixes.
- Bug fixes
-   * BooleanQuery could sometimes assign too low scores to ranges of documents that matched a single clause.
-   * Doc values updates could sometimes be applied in the wrong order.
