[jira] Updated: (LUCENE-664) [PATCH] small fixes to the new scoring.html doc

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-664?page=all ]

Doron Cohen updated LUCENE-664:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: boosts_plus_scoring_formula.patch

(1) added a section in Scoring.xml for "Search Results Boosts", on ways to boost in Lucene, at search time and at indexing time. 

(2) updated the presentation of the scoring formula in Similarity.java, to:
- closely reflect the scoring code/process.
- distinguish between indexing time factors and search time factors, and
- point to differences between a scoring notion (e.g.tf, idf) to the way it is computed.

As result the scoring formula is presented differently in Similarity.java and in Scoring.html. I can update this if there are no objections to the updated formula presentation.

> This is an awesome initiative.  We need more docs that cleanly explain the inner workings of Lucene in general... thanks Grant & Steve & others!
> I have a few small initial proposed fixes, largely just adding some more description around the components of the formula.  But also a couple typos, another link out to Wikipedia, a missing closing ), etc.  I've only made it through the "Understanding the Scoring Formula" section so far.
