:D I obviously said something terribly stupid, oh well, not the first time and 
most likely wont be the last one either.

Anyway, the reason for my asking is : 
 - I've put together a SOLR search service with a few cores. Nothing fancy, it 
works great as is.
 -  the .NET developer I am working with on this  asked for a .wsdl (or .asmx) 
file to import into Visual Studio ... yes, he can access the service directly, 
but he seems to prefer a more 'well defined' interface (haven't really decided 
whether it is worth the effort, but that is another question altogether)

The way I see it, SOLR is a  RESTful service. I am not looking into wrapping 
the whole thing behind SOAP ( I actually much prefer REST than SOAP, but that 
is entering into quasi-religious grounds...) - which should be able to be 
defined with a .wsdl ( v 1.1 should suffice as only GET + POST are supported in 
SOLR anyway).

Am I missing anything here ?

thanks in advance for your time + thoughts ,
B
