Congrats to the whole community with the 9.0 release. Big milestone!

Uwe: Thanks for reporting. Both of the issues are now fixed:
https://solr.apache.org/guide/9_0/ redirects to the new guide
https://solr.apache.org/guide/ is no longer hijacked by the 9.0 guide :)

I also found another bug - /guide/solr/latest links gave 404 since they were 
not routed to __root/... That is now fixed.

Routing of "old style latest links" also seems to work, e.g.
https://solr.apache.org/guide/analysis-screen.html will redirect to the latest 
version of that page for 9.0.

Another bug Houston and I found yesterday was that RewriteRules from old guide 
did not work. Found the bug, the rule must not start with ^/guide, but ^guide
So now many more old-style latest links work too, such as
https://solr.apache.org/guide/a-quick-overview.html

> based on
>> usage metrics.

>> trackable.

> and 'Data'
>> roles.

> collection API
>> calls without relying on the Overseer.
>> 
>> Build and Docker
>> 
>> * Solr is now built and released independently of Apache Lucene (separate
>> Apache projects).
>> * Build system switched to Gradle from Ant + Ivy.
>> * Docker image creation is now a part of the Apache Solr Github repo.
>> * Docker image documentation is now a part of the reference guide.
>> * Official Docker image upgraded to use JDK17 (by Eclipse Temurin) and
> ability
>> to create a local image that is functionally identical to the official
> one.
>> 
>> Deprecations and Removals
>> 
>> * The Data Import Handler (DIH) is an independent project now; it is no
> longer
>> a part of Solr.
>> * No more support for clusterstate.json and MIGRATESTATE API has been
>> removed. If your collections use clusterstate.json, please refer to the
> Upgrade
>> Notes.
>> * Auto scaling framework has been removed. Please refer to the new Replica
>> Placement Plugins for alternate options.
>> * LegacyBM25SimilarityFactory has been removed.
>> * VelocityResponseWriter is an independent project now; it is no longer a
> part
>> of Solr. This encompasses all previously included /browse and wt=velocity
>> examples.
>> * Legacy SolrCache implementations (LRUCache, LFUCache, FastLRUCache)
>> have been removed. Users should modify their existing configurations to
> use
>> CaffeineCache instead.
>> * Cross Data Center Replication has been removed.
>> * SolrJ clients like HttpSolrClient and LBHttpSolrClient that lacked HTTP2
>> support have been deprecated. The old CloudSolrClient has been renamed as
>> CloudLegacySolrClient and deprecated.
>> * SimpleFSDirectoryFactory is removed in favor of NIOFSDirectoryFactory.
>> 
>> Other
>> 
>> * Contrib modules are now just "modules". You can easily enable module(s)
>> through environment variable SOLR_MODULES.
>> * Features lifted out as separate modules are: HDFS, Hadoop-Auth, SQL,
>> Scripting, and JWT-Auth.
>> * The "dist" folder in the release is gone. Module jars are now inside
> respective
>> module's lib/ folder.
>> * SolrJ class CloudSolrClient now supports HTTP2. It has a new Builder.
> See
>> CloudLegacySolrClient for the 8.x version of this class
>> * Jetty Request log is now enabled by default, i.e. logging every request.
