i've been thinking that there are some little things that could be done to clean the wiki up a bit, i'm happy to do them but i wanted to send out a quick ping before i spend a chunk of time on it in case someone thinks it's a bad idea...

1) find all usages of stuff like [Solr 1.2+], [Solr1.2], [Solr 1.3] that denote when a feature/param was added and change them to...

   <!>["Solr1.2"]            (or 1.3 as needed)

...the <!> will insert an "attention" icon to help people notice them, and the quotes will force MoinMoin to make a link out of hte text (Solr1.2 isn't a very MoinMoin friendly wiki word)

2) gut the contents of the Solr1.2 (it still has a bunch of pre 1.2 release planning) and replace it with a page explaining when 1.2 was released, where to find it, and a blurb explaining that any links to this page are used to indicate a feature that was added in this release.

3) add a Solr1.3 page with a similar blurb about how it denotes a feature that *should* be added in 1.3)

(making these pages and using links instead of just text will make it eaier down the road to find them and remove them ... when we're up to Solr 2.0 we don't really need to draw attention to features added in 1.2)

4) create MoinMoin "Categories" for things like RequestHandlers and ResponseWriters (the MoinMoin editing screen gies you a pulldown to assign pages to categories when editing them) .. put all of the RequestHandler and ResponseWriter pages in the appropriate category, and change various places (ie: FrontPage) to use the macro for listing all pages in a category so we don't have to maintain the list manually.


objections?
