Will the transcript/presentation or slides be available afterwards somewhere? Hope so :-) I'll make all zero slides I use for this workshop available to the world, sure! Seriously though, I doubt I'll have much in the way of slides for this workshop, we'll dig right in to firing up Solr and working with it live rather than walking through slides. I am, however, packaging up a binary distribution of Solr, the example application in both source data .xml files and pre-built index, and other sample datasets, such that attendees will be able to jump in regardless of their level of experience with Solr and begin integrating it into their own environments. This preliminary information will appear here: http://code4lib.org/wiki/preconf-docs I will be making slides for my keynote presentation on Solr Flare, and those will certainly be made freely available (and announced here when they are posted). By the way, for many speakers its a classic dilemma to have folks, especially those that didn't attend the event itself, to request slides. The best speakers speak way more than their slides say, so you miss a lot by simply viewing slides. Erik

But something is better then nothing :-) Beside I am in Asia and all the fun stuff are in US :-( Looking forward to it anyway!

I think yonik menitoned before that it would be good to make sure Solr 1.2 used a stable version of Lucene, Specifically, that Solr 1.2 should use Lucene 2.1 (or later). There were so many index format changes in Lucene lately, I wanted some assurances about back-compatibility in the future. but i don't think it would be bad if nightly builds of Solr (which are by definition supose to be considered developer builds and therefore unstable) used unstable Lucene builds. Right. For Solr official releases, we should prefer offlcial Lucene releases, but I wouldn't want to make it a rule. So I'm fine with updating to the latest Lucene nightly build now... It would give us a chance to make sure it works well for us too. Lucene 2.1 shouldn't be too far off... but I'm sick yet again, and it's hard enough writing email in this state that I'm not going to go near any code :-) -Yonik

I'm in my last ditch procrastinating efforts to get my code4lib pre- conference organized where I'll be teach Solr and Lucene, and guiding a hands-on workshop to help 85 library geeks come up to speed with Solr. In order to make Solr work out as well as it could there are two things I'd love to have in a nightly build from Solr (rather than providing my own custom build): * SOLR-79: to allow launching a common schema/config with various data directories. * A newer version of Lucene's JAR: to have *:* syntax. The *:* syntax is important in being able to select all documents since [* TO *] isn't guaranteed. I think SOLR-79 is close - I can commit if folks think it is fine. What about updating the Lucene JAR? Erik
