Even on my original list, Solr was a third priority. Having a clean JAVA API, 
integrated with Lucene, and a clean, simple command-line interface are 
reasonable first steps (in my view). If we have a clean API, then it can be 
integrated easily into Solr by others.

Hi Sujit, 

Thanks for your comments. There was actually some discussion earlier about 
whether or not Solr was the highest priority.

Right now I don't think I could do the integration with Solr since (a) I don't 
know enough Javascript to work with Solr and (b) The time for submitting 
proposals for the program is over.

The project duration is scheduled till end of October. After that or if I get 
time during project period I'll try and work with other functionalities of Luke 
and then try for Solr. I think its best to make Luke completely functioning 
before integrating with the trunk, and this is better in incremental steps.

  Hi Ajay,

  Since you asked for feedback from the community... a lot of what Luke used to 
do is now already available in Solr's admin tool. From Luke's feature set that 
you had in your proposal Google doc. the only ones I think are /not/ preset are 
the following:

  * Browse by document number
  * selectively delete documents from the index - there is no delete document 
page AFAIK, but you can still do this from the URL.
  * reconstruct the original document fields, edit them and re-insert to the 
index - you can do this using code as long as the fields are stored, but there 
is no reconstruct page.
  * optimize indexes - can be done from the URL but probably no page/button for 
this.

  As a Solr user, for me your tool would be most useful if it concentrated on 
these areas, and if it could be integrated into the existing admin tool (the 
Solr 4 one of course). I am not sure what the Solr4 admin tool uses, if its 
Pivot then I guess thats what you should use (and by extension, if not, you 
probably should use what the current tool uses so its easy to maintain going 
forward). Benefit to users such as myself would be unified look-and-feel so not 
much of a learning curve/barrier to adoption.

  Just my $0.02...
