Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-13661:
------------------------------------
{quote}New features can be introduced in any release, irrespective of how big a
feature is
{quote}
Of course. But being a totally new way of distributing Solr and having huge
impact on the whole user and wider dev community, I think it makes totally
sense to introduce pkg mgmt in a major release as beta, and use the following
releases to adjust and settle the APIs and solicit feedback from 3rd party
plugin devs etc. But I agree that, if handled carefully and labeled
"experimental", we may introduce this in a series of 8.x point releases, and
perhaps start moving features from core into packages in master, targeting a
slim solr-core in 9.0, which is a major "feature" in itself.
{quote}This change is not backward incompatible or it does not affect users of
current versionsÂ

You mentioned that "<lib>" is incompatible with your class loader work. Can you
elaborate on that? Is it simply so that a collection using packages cannot also
use "<lib>"?
