+1. If it didn't happen on the mailing list, it didn't happen. To me, that does 
not mean we must not discuss Lucene/Solr together off list here and there. This 
is just one of those lines I think most people understand to a degree. Perhaps 
we should do a little self check and reign in a little - but let's be honest - 
two developers getting together and speeding through some stuff is no different 
than one dev thinking through a lot on his own. You then bring it to the 
mailing list since otherwise it didn't happen. Other than that, we are all big 
boys and I think we can self regulate. It starts getting into fuzzy territory 
of sub groups regularly meeting or something - but like I said - I think 
everyone largely gets it. Personally I've found enough to make it to JIRA 
issues to be satisfied. If I thought something was missing, I'd ask for more 
detail about the issue. I don't see others doing that much, but perhaps I've 
missed it. You want to curate JIRA issues well in either case.
