Hi Hoss,

What I meant by the sentence is actually it's a good thing to work on it now 
because SOLR is in "dev" stage, and not in "pre-release" or "feature freeze" 
state, as indicated by the *-dev on the release #...

Cheers,
Chris

I don't really understand what you mean by this sentence ... but i get the
impression that you are saying we shouldn't attempt anythign too major
just because the version info  on the trunk says "1.5-dev"

that doesn't mean anyone is expecting to release 1.5 ASAP ... that's just
the default version info on the trunk ("-dev" appended to whatever we
expect the next version to be ... if at some point we decide the next
version should be called 49.3 then the trunk would change to "49.3-dev"

besides which: since what we're talking about is really a brand new API
that other ResponseWriters could compose and/or extend to produce XML
structures, even if we did anticipate a release ASAP there would be no
downside to working on it now -- we just wouldn't release it (or release
it as package private) if we didn't think it was ready.
