I would like to try and get the proposed fix on SOLR-2649 ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2649) into the codebase if possible. We have been running a patched v4.7.2 (SOLR-2649-with-Qop.patch) in production since May 2014, and are currently planning an upgrade to either Solr 5 or the latest v4.X (time will tell which).
I would love to be able to drop this patch out of our build procedures, and I am happy to help with any work involved, but not sure where to start (in terms of procedure, not code). The wiki doco on contributing which I read last time just said to put patches in Jira, but I guess this one needs a little more of a push. Given the potentially disruptive nature of the change inside edismax I think more feedback from other edismax users would be nice, but the Jira ticket doesn't get a lot of comment normally. Ta, Greg
