To this end, if it made folks more comfortable, we could release OAI-2.0 
with the database backend by default (and give the option of enabling 
Solr backend if you want the benefits provided by Solr).

OAI-2.0 seems as though it is 100% backwards compatible with current 
OAI, plus it offers many new features and fixes lots of old bugs in the 
current OAI.

Here's the list of old JIRA issues that OAI-2.0 resolves:
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1202?focusedCommentId=25390&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-25390

Again, in my mind, it seems like a obvious replacement to the existing 
OAI implementation, as long as we can get a few more folks to review it.

If for some reason we found it to *not* be backwards compatible, than 
I'd agree that we wouldn't want to completely replace the existing OAI. 
But, so far, from all I've seen/read, it seems like Lyncode has gone out 
of the way to make sure it is 100% backwards compatible.
