We do use standards... lots of them :-) Let's be a bit more specific though - I was asking about using a namespace for the point type by *default*, and in isolation (i.e. the rest of solr xml isn't namespaced), and if/how that made things easier? At first blush it doesn't really seem to since any tool would need to deal with the Solr XML response in general. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com
