I've implemented a Solr plug-in that wraps KStem for Solr use. KStem is considered to be more appropriate for library usage since it is much less aggressive than Porter (i.e., searches for organization do NOT match on organ!). If there is any interest in feeding this back into Solr I would be happy to contribute it.

What would be the simplest way to implement this in Solr? As a plug-in? Has anyone already done this? Thanks... harry
