I guess I was more interested in the tagging part more than
anything. I was thinking that Collex was using tagging from Flare
and I wanted to see how it was being done or use it. I'm about to
try implementing tagging with my non-Ruby (.NET) application that
uses Solr.
As for tagging, it's not as simple as just adding tags to Solr. A
tag (generally) belongs to a user, so where does the user name come
from? Solr can't be responsible for that, though it would clearly
become a field that you'd want in Solr.
As for Collex and Flare. Flare is a distillation of the _ideas_ in
Collex, but currently the two share nothing, not even solr-ruby. The
plan is to migrate pieces of Collex to Flare as we can.
