Hi Solr users and developers,
I am currently working on improving Solr’s plugin/contrib system.
My goal is to make it a breeze to discover and install plugins and to create
a much more vivid 3rd party plugin ecosystem for Apache Solr.
If this interests you then I would love to hear your opinion on the matter.
The easiest way to do so is to answer this online poll (5 minutes):
https://goo.gl/forms/BsNbD4QrlixGBnqL2
If you have more time and would like to dive into the technicalities, you
can also read the design document[1] and provide feedback directly there
or in the corresponding JIRA issue [2].
I’ll share the result of my work, including the results from this poll
in my Lucene Revolution 2017 talk titled "Solr’s Missing Plugin Ecosystem” [3],
where I hope to see many of you too!
