To me this is just another example of these artifacts really needing to be
kept separate.

To take the extreme case in this, then why not sync up release #s with other
major dependencies as well? Solr supports a version of the Servlet spec
right? Why not sync with that? One could argue that Solr is just as
dependent on the HTTP layer as it is on the underlying search framework?

I don't think that the release versions need to be in sync.

Cheers,
Chris
