got some follow-up questions about the best way to package up what

I'm not working on it, but I know that a lot of people in the library

The Extensible Text Framework [1] from the California Digital Library
is similar to solr in that it provides a wrapper around lucene, and
it has some experimental srw/sru support apparently [2]. It might be
worthwhile chatting with them.
