I just entered a massive pull request (consisting of a couple of 
separate commits) for SOLR-75:
https://github.com/sakaiproject/nakamura/pull/948

All integration tests are passing, but I expect other problems to show 
up after it's merged. Given the probable disruption, why am I asking for 
a merge now?

The OAE currently depends on a snapshot build more-or-less randomly 
taken from the Solr/Lucene trunk a year ago. Now that a more stable 
version is finally available from the Solr/Lucene team, we should use 
it. Bugs have been fixed, and clustering and near-real-time options that 
have been added. Most importantly what we're running doesn't match any 
available online documentation, and we need all the development help we 
can get.

There are other search changes that we'd like to get into OAE 1.5.0. But 
because the OAE relies so centrally on Solr/Lucene, it's difficult to 
maintain the Solr/Lucene version update on its own feature branch. 
Usually I prefer to err on the side of caution, but in this case I 
believe it's better to merge early in the development cycle.

Best,
Ray
