Dawid Weiss commented on SOLR-14926:
------------------------------------
This is a rather large patch but I think the state it leaves Solr in is much
better than before. The clustering extension now works in distributed mode, has
fewer dependencies and just generally cleans up a lot of old, unused cruft that
has accumulated over the years.
If somebody wishes to take a look at the PR, please go ahead. I plan to create
a backport PR soon and merge it next week if there are no objections.

> The clustering contrib was written a long time ago and it shows its age. We
> have two separate interfaces (for clustering search results and for
> clustering documents). The second one never received any attention and no
> implementation exists for it.
> I plan to do the following:
> - *remove* the document clustering interface entirely, leave only the
> post-search results clustering extension,
> - upgrade the implementation to Carrot2 4.x (this gets rid of those
> long-standing odd dependencies),
> - clean up the code where appropriate.
> My plan is to apply this to master, initially, but also backport to 8x if
> there are no objections. I don't think it'll hurt anybody.
