Hi, I was playing around with the new scripting support in 1.3. In the documentation is stated that groovy is now the default language. This is not true for all situations. The following query for instance is returning a message about the use of mvel. I have to explicitly set the lang to groovy. In the query. Am I missing something?

Actually mvel is still the default for 1.3.0. groovy will be the default in 1.4.0. We will fix the doc. -- David Pilato | Technical Advocate | [Elasticsearch.com](http://Elasticsearch.com) @dadoonet | @elasticsearchfr Le 25 juillet 2014 à 10:27:44, David Pilato (david@pilato.fr) a écrit: Thanks.
