Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-4792:
------------------------------------
[~tucu00], thank you for taking a look and giving your input.
The issue description says to see the vote on the developer list. If you were
not a subscriber to the dev list in early May of this year when that vote
happened, then here is where you can look at it:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-dev/201305.mbox/browser
Make sure you are on the Thread view. Click "Next" to go to page 2. Search
the page for "webapp" and then you can see/read the many emails with the
subject "VOTE: solr no longer webapp". Looking back through the thread, I
don't recall seeing a -1 vote from any Lucene/Solr committers. The few -1
votes came from users/contributors.
It is completely expected that this change will be unpopular with some
experienced users. I was initially very skeptical. [[email protected]]
put forth a rather large list of compelling reasons for switching, so I changed
my vote from -0 to +1. Many of good reasons seem like they are developer-only
things ... but when the developers find themselves seriously constrained, the
users will not see rapid development of the features that they want, so
reducing developer pain is good for end users.
Since that vote, at least once a week I seem to come across a problem that
would not exist (or would be very easy to fix) if Solr were a self-contained
application. I can't think of any examples right now.
