Since we are a bit late with the release, I`m going to rush things a bit.
6 +1s (counting mine as well from the initial mail), no +0, no -1. Done.
Thanks,
Eduard

Hi devs,
I would like your vote on merging the 'feature-solr-search' branch with
'master' for 4.3M2 as planned in the Roadmap.
Merge Notes:
- A first version of the Solr search is bundled by default as
experimental
with XE, but Lucene is still the default search
engine.
--- Lucene has been upgraded to 3.6.1 [1] and Solr has been downgraded to
the same (3.6.1) version in order to achieve the peaceful cohabitation
between the 2 search versions. If we want Solr 4.0, we need to work a bit
more on the Lucene search, since Lucene 4.0 comes with a considerable
number of refactorings.
----- I have just noticed Jerome's feature-lucene-4.0.0-upgrade [2]
branch.
- The admin needs to use the Search
Administration to switch from Lucene
to
Solr and back. (each engine has its own index)
- The back-end contains a SolrIndex for add/delete operations and a
QueryExecutor to query the index trough XWiki's Query API using the
'solr'
language.
- Indexing is only manually performed for now, from the Search
Administration, blocking the request until the operation is complete.
- Search highlighting is available
- The default search looks only for Documents. Filtered/Advanced search
options can be used to change some of the search parameters.
- Lucene/Solr syntax is supported in the query string
- Faceted search is currently hidden because it is not yet in an usable
state.
- SearchSuggest is still using Lucene, no matter what the configuration
in
Search Administration says
- The merge also contains a fix for a pretty nasty yet easily fixable
Lucene deadlock [3] (introduced 10 months ago) and some Search Admin UI
improvements [4]
The pull requests [5][6] are available for reviewing so start shooting :)
Thanks,
Eduard
