Dear Lucene and Solr developers! According to an earlier [DISCUSS] thread on the dev list [2], I am calling for a vote on the proposal to make Solr a top-level Apache project (TLP) and separate Lucene and Solr development into two independent entities. To quickly recap the reasons and consequences of such a move: it seems like the reasons for the initial merge of Lucene and Solr, around 10 years ago, have been achieved. Both projects are in good shape and exhibit signs of independence already (mailing lists, committers, patch flow). There are many technical considerations that would make development much easier if we move Solr out into its own TLP. We discussed this issue [2] and both PMC members and committers had a chance to review all the pros and cons and express their views. The discussion showed that there are clearly different opinions on the matter - some people are in favor, some are neutral, others are against or not seeing the point of additional labor. Realistically, I don't think reaching 100% level consensus is going to be possible -- we are a diverse bunch with different opinions and personalities. I firmly believe this is the right direction hence the decision to put it under the voting process. Should something take a wrong turn in the future (as some folks worry it may), all blame is on me. Therefore, the proposal is to separate Solr from under Lucene TLP, and make it a TLP on its own. The initial structure of the new PMC, committer base, git repositories and other managerial aspects can be worked out during the process if the decision passes. Please indicate one of the following (see [1] for guidelines): [ ] +1 - yes, I vote for the proposal [ ] -1 - no, I vote against the proposal Please note that anyone in the Lucene+Solr community is invited to express their opinion, though only Lucene+Solr committers cast binding votes (indicate non-binding votes in your reply, please). The vote will be active for a week to give everyone a chance to read and cast a vote.
