Yup - we are slowly marching down it on the solrcloud branch in svn. We have some work to do to finish the basic scaffolding, and clean some things up - we should be able to start working on recovery soon. > Maybe there was some additional work done with distributed > indexing ? Yeah, we have made a bit of progress on the solrcloud branch - but there is still much to do! At a very simple level, there is an impl of a distributed update handler that works in the simple case attached to that issue, but it's got lots of limitations that we will hopefully address with the in-progress Distributed Indexing work. > > -- > Regards, > Rafał Kuć > - Mark Miller lucidimagination.com
