A lot of stuff in a short time!



I know it is a Lucene feature, but the fact that Solr now compresses
stored fields is significant to Solr users, and IMO should be included
in the Solr release notes.

I added the important URL-encoding issue tot he Solr release notes. There was 
again a question on solr-user that Solr does not decode URLs correctly (because 
user missed to configure Tomcat correctly). With 4.1 this is now obsolete and 
works out of the box with any web container, so this is really important to 
mention.

The DataImportHandler contrib module has some minor backwards-compatibility 
breaks in this release.

1. Both NumberFormatTransformer  DateFormatTransformer default to the root 
locale if none is specified.  Prior versions used the JVM default locale.  It 
is strongly advised that users always specify the locale when using this 
transformer. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4095

2. Both FileDataSoruce and FieldReaderDataSource default to UTF-8 encoding if 
none is specified.  Prior versions used the JVM default.  See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4096 .  Also, the behavior of 
DataSource and encoding may change again in a subsequent release.  See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2347 .

3. The formatDate evaluator now defaults to using the root locale.  Prior 
versions used the JVM default.  Both the locale  timezone now can be specified 
using new optional parameters.  See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4086  
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2201 .

4. The dataimport.properties file, which holds the last indexed timestamp for 
use with delta imports, is now by default using the root locale.  This 
default can be overridden using the new propertyWriter / tag in 
data-config.xml.  Prior versions used the default JVM locale.  This is only of 
concern if your default locale uses different DataFormatSymbols than the root 
locale and if your installation depends on these alternate symbols (for 
instance if your RDMBS takes dates using your locale-specific date symbols). 
See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4051

5. The experimental DIHProperties interface has changed, and is now an abstract 
class.  This will require code changes for anyone who has a custom 
DIHProperties.  Also note that future API changes with this class are possible 
in subsequent releases.  See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4051

6. The Evaluator framework has received extensive refactoring.  Some custom 
evaluators may require code changes.  Specifically, public or protected methods 
from the EvaluatorBag class have been moved to the Evaluator abstract class 
that all Evalutators must extend.  See 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4086

Re: 4.1 release notes: please review

My take on release notes is that they mainly talk about new features/big 
changes, and if other things are mentioned, they are only mentioned briefly.

But if you think it's worth its own section, go for it.

Thanks Stefan, can you go ahead and make these modifications?  I like the 
priority sorting you suggested, though I haven't completely done that 
everywhere else. - Steve

 Hey Steve
 
 just a quick note about the admin ui section in solr's notes, i would drop 
 Replication Icon on Dashboard now reflects Master-/Slave- State because it 
 suggests a bigger change than it really is/was .. there is no new 
 functionality included, it really just shows the right icon (it was not wrong 
 before, we used a generic icon before)
 
 On the other hand, i suggest we include a note for SOLR-3876 (Solr Admin UI 
 is completely dysfunctional on IE 9) which is fixed in 4.1, which is really 
 worth mentioning it :)
 
 Don't know if the other list is sorted by priority (or what ever you'd like 
 to name it), if so .. i would sort it like this:
 
 Admin UI improvements:
 * Works now also while using Internet Exploder (or something like this?)
 * Enhanced readability of XML query response display in Query UI
 * Many improvements to DataImportHandler UI
 
 
 * Core creation and deletion now updates the main/left list of cores
 * Admin Cores UI now redirects to newly created core details
 
 * Deleted documents are calculated/displayed.
 
 
 * Allow multiple Items to stay open on Plugins-Page

My take on release notes is that they mainly talk about new features/big

But if you think it's worth its own section, go for it.

 --
 The DataImportHandler contrib module has some minor backwards-compatibility 
 breaks in this release.
 
 1. Both NumberFormatTransformer  DateFormatTransformer default to the 
 root locale if none is specified.  Prior versions used the JVM default 
 locale.  It is strongly advised that users always specify the locale when 
 using this transformer. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4095
 
 2. Both FileDataSoruce and FieldReaderDataSource default to UTF-8 encoding 
 if none is specified.  Prior versions used the JVM default.  See 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4096 .  Also, the behavior of 
 DataSource and encoding may change again in a subsequent release.  See 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2347 .
 
 3. The formatDate evaluator now defaults to using the root locale.  
 Prior versions used the JVM default.  Both the locale  timezone now can be 
 specified using new optional parameters.  See 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4086  
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2201 .
 
 4. The dataimport.properties file, which holds the last indexed timestamp 
 for use with delta imports, is now by default using the root locale.  This 
 default can be overridden using the new propertyWriter / tag in 
 data-config.xml.  Prior versions used the default JVM locale.  This is only 
 of concern if your default locale uses different DataFormatSymbols than the 
 root locale and if your installation depends on these alternate symbols 
 (for instance if your RDMBS takes dates using your locale-specific date 
 symbols). See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4051
 
 5. The experimental DIHProperties interface has changed, and is now an 
 abstract class.  This will require code changes for anyone who has a custom 
 DIHProperties.  Also note that future API changes with this class are 
 possible in subsequent releases.  See 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4051
 
 6. The Evaluator framework has received extensive refactoring.  Some custom 
 evaluators may require code changes.  Specifically, public or protected 
 methods from the EvaluatorBag class have been moved to the Evaluator 
 abstract class that all Evalutators must extend.  See 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4086

Saying tomorrow without any date that gives anyone any time to do
anything is out of nowhere to me. People in Europe and east of that will
wake up and find out, oh today. While pressure has been building towards 
a

release, no one has proposed a date for a cutoff. I think that is always
only fair. I think that if you were desperate to cut off to blockers
tomorrow, you should have called for that last week.

Robert Muir's short term releases are not threatened by allowing people
to plan and execute a release together. You can take that too far and do
damage from the opposite direction. Giving people time to tie things up 
with

a real deadline is only fair. We all know a nebulous deadline is not
conducive to finishing up work.

I think all releases should have a known date that we agree on that 
gives
developers some time to finish what they are working on or what they 
believe
is important for the release. At a minimum there should be a few days 
for

this. A weekend involved only seems fair. This doesn't have to be a long
time, but it should not require we file blockers and just seems like a
friendly way to develop together.

Monday is fine by me if others buy into it.

Otherwise, we have taken 4 or 5 months for 4.1. Let's not drag it out
another month. But let's not do the reverse and release it tonight. The
sensible approach always seems like we should plan out some target dates 
on
the list - dates that actually give devs a chance to respond to - and 
then

follow through on those dates.

 I think we should give a bit of time for people to finish up what's in
 flight or fix any blockers. Then we should heighten testing and allow for
 any new blockers, and then kick it out. If we need to do a 4.2 shortly
 after, so be it.

 Saying tomorrow without any date that gives anyone any time to do
 anything is out of nowhere to me. People in Europe and east of that will
 wake up and find out, oh today. While pressure has been building towards a
 release, no one has proposed a date for a cutoff. I think that is always
 only fair. I think that if you were desperate to cut off to blockers
 tomorrow, you should have called for that last week.

 Robert Muir's short term releases are not threatened by allowing people
 to plan and execute a release together. You can take that too far and do
 damage from the opposite direction. Giving people time to tie things up with
 a real deadline is only fair. We all know a nebulous deadline is not
 conducive to finishing up work.

 I think all releases should have a known date that we agree on that gives
 developers some time to finish what they are working on or what they believe
 is important for the release. At a minimum there should be a few days for
 this. A weekend involved only seems fair. This doesn't have to be a long

Saying tomorrow without any date that gives anyone any time to do anything 
is out of nowhere to me. People in Europe and east of that will wake up 
and find out, oh today. While pressure has been building towards a 
release, no one has proposed a date for a cutoff. I think that is always 
only fair. I think that if you were desperate to cut off to blockers 
tomorrow, you should have called for that last week.


Robert Muir's short term releases are not threatened by allowing people to 
plan and execute a release together. You can take that too far and do 
damage from the opposite direction. Giving people time to tie things up 
with a real deadline is only fair. We all know a nebulous deadline is not 
conducive to finishing up work.


I think all releases should have a known date that we agree on that gives 
developers some time to finish what they are working on or what they 
believe is important for the release. At a minimum there should be a few 
days for this. A weekend involved only seems fair. This doesn't have to be 
a long time, but it should not require we file blockers and just seems 
like a friendly way to develop together.


Monday is fine by me if others buy into it.

Otherwise, we have taken 4 or 5 months for 4.1. Let's not drag it out 
another month. But let's not do the reverse and release it tonight. The 
sensible approach always seems like we should plan out some target dates 
on the list - dates that actually give devs a chance to respond to - and 
then follow through on those dates.

As of now, there are two Blocker issues in JIRA with Fix Version 4.1: 

Dataimporting with SolrCloud Fails
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4112

modify release process/scripts to use svn for rc/release publishing 
(svnpubsub)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4134

(LUCENE-4431 - servlet-api.jar licensing - is listed as Blocker with Fix 
Version including 4.1, but this has been fixed in branch_4x, and was reopened 
only for 3.6.X backporting.)  

LUCENE-4547 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4547 (DocValues 2.0)

I set a couple of others to Blocker just now, which are related, probably dups. 
 Shalin is assigned to them both.

   Solr 4 atomic update incorrect value when setting two or more values to a 
multivalue via XML update

and 

   Atomic Updates on multi-valued fields giving unexpected results

Hopefully these aren't too bad and can make it in as well.

This is a pretty bad bug (you cannot use docvalues with large
segments: I initially made it blocker for that reason), but I think we
are making good progress at a good pace.

My personal opinion: Its fine to just move it out to 4.2, I'd rather
have the time to get everything nice. A 4.1 would be an improvement on
its own, even if there are known problems like that.

4.1 release

2012-12-31 Thread Mark Miller
I've started pushing on JIRA issue for a 4.1 release.

If something is pushed that you are going to work on in the very near term, 
please put it back.

I'll progressively get more aggressive about pushing and count on committers to 
fix any mistakes if they want something in 4.1.

Remember, 4.2 can come shortly after 4.1.

Next I will be pushing any 4.1 issues that have not been updated in a couple 
months.
