They've done a very different job than you would see if we were to make an

both Solr and for other search packages.

Is that the only thing that's different? Does this one thing make a
lot of impact?

They've split it into solr-common, solr-jetty, solr-tomcat, and at least one other package that's just lucene, no Solr.

I wonder if one could write a 'reasonable deployment guide'. Would
that then make it easier for package creators to do their job (Solr in
Puppet, Solr in Chef, Solr in RPM, Solr on Windows, etc)?

I would really like to do this, and I've filed some issues in JIRA about it. For me, it's just an issue of available time to work on it. I'm willing to do the work, and IMHO I'm reasonably capable. If you want to put some time into it, I'm willing to look it over and make sure it gets included and/or mentioned in what users see when they download.

Thanks,
Shawn
