While we are on this subject...my company is kind of new to the whole open
source as a production tool concept. I can't push anything to production
that isn't labeled as 'release' or similar designation. So, 1.4.1 is what I
have right now. I can play with other versions but that's about it. I'm
fairly new to open source myself.

I was curious, who decides when 4.0 is ready for Release? The community?
What are the criteria under which that decision is made? Is there a
published timeline, or is it just ready when it's ready?  

I'm happy with 1.4.1, it does the job. But there are some features in 4.0
I'm really looking forward to. Also, anyone know if

Smiley and Pugh  are planning a 2nd Edition of their book to cover 4.0?

Hi,

Added a link to the wiki to the latest stable 1.4 branch that will become 
1.4.2. You should checkout and build this branch if you have a requirement to 
use only a released version. 1.4.2 only contains critical bug fixes over 1.4.1 
and is considered stable.

See here for a clarification of Solr versions:

Thanks Jan. I didn't know about 1.4.2 I'll give it a look. However, your link
is something I've already seen. I understand the different Solr versions, my
question was more on what is the process, and timeline, for the community to
turn the current trunk into a 'release'. From that link, and other forum
comments I basically have determined that 3.x is useless and will be
skipped. 4.x is an important advancement and highly anticipated. 

I just wanted to know how/when 4.0 goes from  next major release (trunk in
svn) to  latest officially stable release.

Yes, the project is not good enough at communicating the roadmap clearly. We 
often hide behind the fact that nobody knows since it's open source, but I 
think the PMC would benefit from trying to maintain some sort of no-guarantee 
roadmap clarifying to all what most people think will happen going forward.

My clear opinion is that 3.1 *will* be released as the next major release 
before the holidays, and that we'll see 3.2 and 3.x releases as well once 
enough of the new suff from trunk stabilizes. The community is planning more 
frequent releases than once a year going forward!

Then, at some point, a 4_x branch will be created from trunk to release a 4.0 
release with some radical non-backward compatible changes over 3.x, while trunk 
changes focus to becoming the next 5.x.

Your best bet is to use svn.
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/version_control.html

For Solr 4.0, you need to check out trunk:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/trunk

For Solr 3.1, you'd use branch_3x:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/branches/branch_3x
