An actual demo hosted by apache would be cool (and useful for people
who wanted to get a peek at Solr without having to install it), but
it's not what I was talking about in my email.

I was thingking something small that can be checked into SVN as a
regular part of Solr,  so when someone downloads Solr, they can do the
following:
  - build solr
  - deploy solr and the demo schema to tomcat
  - run some kind of command to add data to the index
  - go to the admin interface and execute some queries

The "some kind of command to add data" to the index could just be a
shell script with curl commands (Right now, the only way to update
Solr is by posting an XML document).  I think that would be most
instructive to a new developer.

As far as dmoz goes, I don't know too much about it, but we want to
avoid confusing peopleout about what Solr is (it's not nutch, which is
the best solution for crawling, indexing, and searching the web).
