Off topic a bit, Has anyone set forth to build a new admin interface for SOLR? I build a lot of admin interfaces for my day job and would love to give the admin module a bit of a tune-up (I won't use the term overhaul).
i think we definitely need an updated admin interface, yes! Ideally, we could get rid of all the JSP and do everything with requestHandlers + XSLT. Then everything could work with only a JRE - it would not require a JDK and all the jsp jars. AND this would let other clients have access to the same info with JSON/xml etc check: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-162 This puts a lot of the functionality as handlers, but still needs an XSLT front end
