Doug Daniels commented on SOLR-356:
-----------------------------------

I found that thread at [http://marc.info/?l=lucene-dev&m=113355526731460&w=2].  
It's quite a lengthy thread, but from what I read I agree that it's trying to 
solve a similar problem (plus a few additional problems that solr has since 
solved nicely).

Perhaps it's just personal preference, but I find XML description of functions, 
though powerful and expressive, quite a bit clunky.  I far prefer the 
functional style for this sort of task.

Maybe I'm missing something from the recommendation though.  Were you 
recommending using XML to express the functions themselves, or something else 
about the xml-query-parser?
