I'm just a surprised observer that doesn't seems to get all the trouble
and need for this svn merge.
I have my own private Solr-like framework around Lucene. It uses maven to
build and nicely gets all dependencies to Lucene and Tika whenever I build
or release, no problem there and certainly no need to have it merged into
Lucene's svn!
Professionally i work on a (world-class) geocoder that also nicely depends
on Lucene by using maven, no problems there at all and no need to merge
that code in Lucene's svn!
