Hi Otis: I guess I got too obsessed trying to resolve my SolrJ/Solr interaction problem, I missed your reply... I've heard using 3.1 is the best approach, and now 4.0/trunk. Will trunk be undergoing a release in the next few months then? It seems so soon after 3.x.
Fortunately, I have both branch_3x and trunk checked out and I can generate Maven artifacts for each one. That makes it easy for me to use one or the other, at least until I get set on some feature only available in one of them. Is trunk currently a superset of branch_3x, or are there some 3.x features that won't be merged into trunk for quite some time?
