Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-3259:
-----------------------------------

+1 to the general idea of lifting the first-time experience of Solr. I like all 
your proposals except...

I'm not sure if we gain much by moving the example to a "server" folder. I 
think it's a Good Thing™ that we make it clear that what's provided is just an 
example, not for production. Another name for the example folder could be 
"jetty", because that's what it really is - which many are confused by today, 
they think that the "lib" and "etc" folders below "example" belong to Solr...

If anything I'd vote for making the distro closer to what people would want in 
production. You could then have a pure "solr/jetty" folder with ONLY jetty, a 
"solr/example-home" folder which holds todays "example/solr" making it more 
obvious what folder is actually the SOLR_HOME, and finally a start script on 
top level, start-solr.[cmd|sh], which copies the war from dist to 
jetty/webapps, sets -Dsolr.solr.home and starts Jetty. By default start-solr.sh 
would log to stdout, but a param could have it log to file.
