Thanks for clarifying, Mark. We all have real jobs (and life) so delays are I think understandable. I tend to agree with David that even something that is slow at start has benefits but I respect your will to keep the partial work unpublished.
I've made some changes here and there (the original gradle branch, Solr ref guide) and some seem valuable even now -- for example I can compile the ref guide without installing any extra tools, which is great.
