Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-614:
------------------------------------

If I understood the discussion on the dev list properly, we would put off any 
syntax changes until 2.0, and then hopefully use some configuration standards 
that we don't maintain (spring)

Yes, the new format is cleaner and more clear, but I fear compatibility/clarity 
issues with existing 1.x setups and multiple syntaxs for the same thing seems 
problematic.

I think we should mark this as "won't fix", and save the configuration cleanup 
till we can do it well -- ie, spring.

> All the components initialized by Solr have an init(NamedList args) 
> initializer. This leads us to writing the configuration needed for the 
> component in the NamedList xml format. People familiar with Solr may know the 
> format but most of what is written is noise than information. For users who 
> are not familiar w/ the format find it too difficult to understand why they 
> have to write it this way. Moreover , it is not a very efficient way to 
> configure .
