Eric Pugh commented on SOLR-17944:
----------------------------------
I think "yet another repo" that doesn't get much visibility, while better that
it's under Apache, isn't really going to be meaningfully different than keeping
it where it is. Since solr-sandbox isn't set up for releases, then it's out.
Obviously my preference is that MCP is built into the core of Solr. Having it
be "yet another bolt on thing" means that our data scientist colleagues, who
are really going to love the ability to interact with Solr without being solr
experts, are going to have to deploy, at least locally, yet another tool or
service. Instead of just pointing to a Solr and discovering which tools that
Solr version etc has. Which means adoption will be a lot slower. I'm not
convinced that a separate tool will accelreate adoption... But I'm ready to
be wrong!
I think we should have Aditya prepare the initial PR to solr-mcp once it's
created, so we can review and suggest things that we want to make it fit into
the Apache Solr ecosystem the best:
* Integrate it into the website
* Add it to the Ref Guide, especially with a tutorial!
* Get a nice "welcome" blog post out for it.
* Anything build tooling or libs usage? What would make it feel more "solr
like" so that existing committers and contributors can get their hands dirty in
it?
* Any other patterns that we use that we would want in a java centric sub
project?
