I read a bit "Lucene in action" with a lot of nice example and was very
optimistic to use solr, but i was really disappointed when I was looking for
documentation for solr - even the javadoc is very poor, no explanation of
the framework, about why there are so many different classes with similar
names, everything is just confusing!
I think, if somebody would have invested 1% of the time creating solr in his
documentation, solr could be very easely used by everyone.
I am not an expert in search engine, and i also don't think that the
framework of solr is so complicated, but without documentation I just feel
lost.

What i really want  to do is a kind of "custom sorting" very similar to that
"DistanceComparator" example from "Lucene in Action", but there is really no
examples out there how to do that...

I admit, my own code most of time is not looking much better, but for such a
big project i really expected much more documentation and comments for the
api.

Thanks,
Markus
