Then there are a couple of important wiki pages that would be great. For example, 1. Tomcat installation page - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat 2. Jetty - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrJetty 3. Adding documents in XML - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages 4. DataImportHandler (this is a huge one, not everything may be needed) -- http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler 5. Common Query parameters - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommonQueryParameters 6. Simple facet params - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SimpleFacetParameters 7. Using the Solrj client - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Solrj We can also convert the comments in the example solrconfig.xml and schema.xml to other languages as they contain very comprehensive and perhaps the most up-to-date documentation. I know this is a lot so please do not feel like everything here is needed :) We should be able to pare things down quite a bit. This is also a good opportunity to organize the documentation better and expand the tutorial to make it more comprehensive. If we can do that, translating that one tutorial should be good enough. -- Regards, Shalin Shekhar Mangar.
