Ok, so I took the liberty of updating https://wiki.apache.org/solr/ReleaseNote70 <https://wiki.apache.org/solr/ReleaseNote70> with my changes Note that the previous version of the release notes can still be found at https://wiki.apache.org/solr/ReleaseNote70?action=info <https://wiki.apache.org/solr/ReleaseNote70?action=info> for reference
Joel, look at the bullet I re-added about Math expressions, feel free to jump in and modify now that it is in the Wiki. Cassandra, I totally agree about ref guide syncing and communicating one message. Also the practice of listing some of the major features introduced in 6.x is a good thing. If you have wording improvements to my summaries, please chime in, I’m not a technical writer :) And please, I was serious about choosing 7 major features and not adding random single improvements. The list has already creeped from 7 to 9 bullets. If you want to add something, then ask youself which of the other bullets that are less important to MOST USERS and then replace that bullet instead of adding more.
