Thanks for initiating this discussion, Ishan. For the sake of making sure that we are all on the same page, let me summarize my understanding and take on this thread. The current situation Mark has a reference branch, which the folks who have looked at the branch, feel that it’s a much better,

Just want to close the loop on this restlet issue. I've removed the restlet dependency in master (e879a52291ef7dcd0514e7419d811b6ff800bcce) but have not backported that to 8.x yet. I'm hesitant to backport because I had to change public function signatures on ManagedResource, e.g.

Copying below Mark's posts from ASF Slack #solr-next-big-thing channel. The Solr Reference Branch. Document 1, a quick intro. You can think of the Solr Reference Branch as a remaster of Solr. It is not an attempt to redesign Solr or make it more fancy. The goal of the Solr Reference Branch is to

I wanted to ask now that the 8.6.3 vote is underway - for the docker-solr image, are the update instructions in the docker-solr repo still the same for 8.x even though the build process has been moved to the main project for 9.0? Meaning, to release the 8.6.3 image there’s no change from

I'm willing to help and I believe others will too if the amount of work for contributing is reasonable (i.e. not a three months effort). I looked into the possibility of doing so. To me, it seemed to be that it is very hard to do so: possibly 1 year project for me. Problem is that it is hard to

Another option to integrate this work into the main code line would be to understand what changes have been made and where (Mark's descriptions in Slack go in the right way but are still too high level), and then port or even redo them in main, one by one. I think the danger is high to treat this

As I said, I'm *personally* not confident in putting such a big changeset into master that wasn't vetted in a real user environment widely. I have, in the past, done enough bad things to Solr (directly or indirectly), and I don't want to repeat the same. Also, I'll be very uncomfortable if someone
