Re: Announce list

Hi,

Thanks for your answers. I'll give some context: our project uses multiple
3rd party products, Solr is among them. Upgrading versions of 3rd parties
can only take place at specific points in time in the development cycle. At
these points it would be useful to be able to see what changed in all the
3rd parties and consider the upgrade.

So some projects (e.g. Maven, Tomcat) have their own ANNOUNCE-only lists
that make it easy to get informed of just the updates, and I was hoping to
have the same functionality in Solr.

The proposed solutions so far (the Apache general updates RSS and the Solr
general list) are too noisy and not focused enough.

Relatedly, is it possible to get updates on the Solr News page (
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/solrnews.html)? I couldn't find an RSS link
or such.

Best,
Arie

 This is the primary usecase for the general list, although it does
 occasionally get other traffic from people with questions/discussion about
 the project as a whole...


 https://lucene.apache.org/solr/discussion.html#general-discussion-generallucene
 https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-general/

 If you are looking for a really low volume list where release
 announcements are made, that's the place to start.

Hi,

Is there a mailing list for getting just announcements about new versions?

Thanks,
