Thanks - that helps, and ideally should help with adoption questions here.
You said "most cases" - I've read something about "solr extends lucene" in
the docs. Are there some specific solr-only bits of functionality that
would preclude vanilla-lucene code from accessing solr-created indexes?

Hi Michael,
What Solr is really doing is building a Lucene index. In most cases a
Java developer should be able to access the index that Solr built through
the IndexReader/IndexSearcher classes and the location of the index that
Solr built. See the Lucene API for details on these and other classes.
The default index location is in solr/data/index relative to where you
start the servlet which is running Solr.
Hope you find that helpful,
Tricia
