My "Subversion and Solr" presentation from the last Cocoon GetTogether might give you ideas for how to handle this, see the link at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrResources. Although it does not handle all binary formats out of the box (might need to write some java glue code to implement new formats), Cocoon is a good tool for transforming various document formats to XML and filter the results to generate the appropriate XML for Solr. I wouldn't add functionality to Solr for doing this, it's best to keep things loosely-coupled IMHO. -Bertrand
