Re: Propose eliminate "Versions of Major Components"

Does it make sense to mention where to look for the jars Solr uses? Or maybe just where the “major components” live? The problem is that even leaving out things like contribs and test, it’s still confusing: dist dist/solrj-libs server/solr-webapp/webapp/WEB-INF/lib server/lib > On Dec 24,

Re: Propose eliminate "Versions of Major Components"

Jetty version is printed early in the logs so should be easy to find if you don’t want to check the sources. Looking in RefGuide for ZK version, there seems to be a bug, see https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_3/setting-up-an-external-zookeeper-ensemble.html#download-apache-zookeeper
