Hi,

I tested Lucene and Solr builds:

- The tgz files unzip fine with Linux/Cygwin tar, but with latest Windows 7-Zip 
Filemanager it says (when opening the inner TAR file): "data after end of tar 
file" (or like that). As the fixes extract correctly on Linux, I think that 
might be a bug in 7-Zip, but never happened with any releases before.

- URGENT: Our change to IVY is nowhere noted in CHANGES.txt!!! This is a major 
problem, as this is a huge change and people used to building Lucene from 
source only looking into CHANGES.txt will fail to build without inspecting 
BUILD.txt. We have changes entries for the refactoring of the build directory 
structure (by Steven), but not for the Ivy change. Very bad! We must at least 
tell people about that in the release notes, otherwise -1.

- PANGAEA huge index checks: No VInt bugs or similar on checkindex and anywhere 
else (Java 1.7.0_03). Now runs in production, very nice. Not even a need to 
recompile the whole stuff needed, fine backwards!

- JAR files build with JDK 1.5.0_22 - That’s really nice, thanks Robert (and 
important in my opinion, I was missing that in previous releases).

- Binary Javadocs still Geocities-like, it's no problem, but was it not planned 
to use Java 7? - It's of course fine!

- Lucene Source package builds and tests fine.

- Solr Source package builds fine (I only ran the build inside solr/ folder to 
test this actually works)

- Solr tests ran fine on second run, in the first run (Java 5) I hit the famous 
XALAN XSLTC bug with turkish locale in the internal XALAN XSLTC processor fork 
*) -- This is a well-known Java 5 (XALAN XSLTC) bug and Turkish people who use 
XSL script know that this bug is existent, they would have seen the bug without 
Solr, too.

My +0.5 for the release, I would wish we fix CHANGES.txt before release - then 
I would give +1!

Uwe


*) See the bug, we also hit it in Lucene before: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2685, 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2420, 
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38787 - In later Java 6 this 
seems fixed (although it still contains XSLTC, but they may use use newer BCEL).
