I’d be interested in shepherding “newdev” style contributions to being commits. 
  I’m not comfortable making any deeper changes in Solr, but if it’s a “newdev” 
labeled featured, well then it’s probably “newcommitter” friendly as well ;-).  
 

Feel free to tag me on any issues that have patches etc….
