the solr date format is a bit more strict (ISO 8601)
yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS
there is talk of a more lienent date parser, but nothing exists yet..
The format you suggest would be ok if you index your dates as a string
'20070101' and then use a range query.

Hello,
Searching by date ranges doesn't seem to work in the example Solr
install. A query like `timestamp:[20070101 TO 20080101]` returns:
*message* _Invalid Date String:'20070101'_
*description* _The request sent by the client was syntactically
incorrect (Invalid Date String:'20070101')._
That query should be valid according to
http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/queryparsersyntax.html#Range%20Searches
Any ideas?
