Let me amend this a bit to be a little more informative. SolrCloud will get a second shot, I'm bringing it up because I'm near the end of the road on my effort toward that shot (bittersweet and thank god). It will be visible, touchable, smellable and observable.
I am not a Solr PMC member, I have not committed anything to an Apache branch in what must be well over a year now, and there are no doubt more than a few developers plugging along, thinking, what is this annoyance and presumption in my mailbox and where is that spam button. So let's be clear. I've got the shot, shots are interesting and valuable. If you ever wondered what SolrCloud was supposed to be, what another view of it could be, that's signed, sealed and delivered. When I say this won't be in an Apache release next week, that's probably a little too optimistic a phrasing for a variety of recipients here. I've just about wrapped up my goals, I'm walking on sunshine, my itches and goals have been tickled pink, more than a few people are going to be interested and gain some value from what I will dutifully wrap up. But that's the fruit of my mission, not a big bottle of forced medicine for those that have very different views about the current software and what could and should be done with it and what's going on with it now. There is more than enough room for reasonable different opinions on all these topics. So a bit of an accuracy correction - anyone who wants to is going to get to take a look at a SolrCloud that in my opinion, is satisfyingly like it was always supposed to be. Not everyone cares about that, so sorry, didn't mean to mislead you, and others think the current stuff is fairly close or on the path to what SolrCloud is supposed to be. Lots of people, a lot of different views and feelings. I promise to share my view and feelings in code, I don't promise they displace all the people actually running this project or that they should or that is what drives me. I'm excited and wrapping and enjoying the fruits of my labor, I'm going to more than happily put up for display, and that's about the extend of what I really should have communicated.
