That would really be no real world change from how things work today. The fact 
is, today, Solr already operates essentially as an independent project.
The only real difference is that it shares the same PMC with Lucene now and 
wouldn't with this change. This would address none of the issues that triggered
the idea for a possible merge.

Hey Grant,

I¹d like to explore this<  does this imply that the Lucene sub-projects will
go away and Lucene will turn into Lucene-java and maintain its Apache TLP,
and then you¹d have say, solr.apache.org, tika.apache.org, mahout.apache.org
(already started), etc. etc.? If so, that may be the best of all worlds,
allowing project independence, but also not following the Apache
"antipattern" as Doug put it...

Cheers,
Chris

Also, as Doug alluded to, the Board is likely to ask us to consider less
subprojects in the future, so we may be consolidating and spinning off anyway.
