There are just a lot of bug fixes, not really anything particularly nasty. I think we will probably do a 4.3 soon as well, but we have not invested time in a point release in a while and I think it causes fewer upgrades that will fix bugs. I think people are less likely to upgrade to 4.3 than 4.2.1 anytime soon. Because of that, and because Robert shouldered most of the 4.2 burden, I figured I could stand to put some effort into a 4.2.1.
Part of this is guilt I suppose? There have been bugs that I have thought warranted a 4.0.1 and 4.1.1, but I never felt I had the time/energy to shoulder a release. There are parts that involve Maven :) One of the more annoying bugs to me is that accessing the admin UI in SolrCloud mode causes lots of warning logging that fills up your logs and looks scary - just that makes me want a 4.2.1, but there are lots of other bugs fixes already as well. - Mark On Mar 17, 2013, at 9:45 PM, Bill Au <bill.w...@gmail.com> wrote: > Mark, thanks for the heads up.
