RE: Lunene 2.3-2.4 switch: Scoring change

[Chris Hostetter <ho...@fucit.org>]

: To get the normalized scores use:
	...
: float score = hits[1].score / td.getMaxScore();

Strictly speaking, this code will not return the exact same scores as the 
deprecated Hits API.  the Hits class only normalizes the scores if the max 
score is greater then 1.0f

(yet another one of the marvolously unexpected and hard to explain nuances 
of Hits that make me happy to say goodbye to it)
