...Following the tutorial and looking at the examples it seems that solr
only supports one document type.

<add><doc>
  <field name="id">3007WFP</field>

  <!-- ... -->
</doc></add>...

That's right, to add documents to a Solr index you need to transform
them to this model. You're basically creating fields to be indexed,
and the Solr schema.xml allows you to define precisely how you want
each field to be indexed, including strict data types, pluggable
Lucene analyzers, etc.

This means some work in converting your content model to an "indexing
model", but it's very worth it as it gives you very precise control
about what you index and how.

...Further since the project is for a customer I would need a released
version when I put my engine in production. When does this community
expect to make its first release, or better asked which are the
blockers?...

I'm relatively new here so I'll let others complete this info, but
IIUC the only work needed to do a first release is to make sure all
source files are "clean" w.r.t required Apache license notices. I
don't think there are any technical blockers for a release, many of us
are happily using Solr on production sites.

You might want to look at these links for more info:
