Hi Folks,

    I'm going to setup a SOLR search server for the first time.  Hope you don't 
mind a few beginner questions.  Perhaps a quick summary of how I intend to use 
it will help.

    The SOLR server will be installed on a single VPS host and bound to a 
internal IP (192.168.?.?).  Search parameters will be received by a mod_perl 
script which will handle input validation, SOLR query language generation, 
submition to SOLR, SOLR response parsing and search request response.

    Should I go with Beta 4 or stable 3?

    Which servlet container would you suggest is the most efficient for my 
implementation?

    I'm unclear if the JDK is required or I can just install a JRE.  I was 
guessing that Oracle's Java SE 7u7 would probably be the best implementation, 
yes/no?

    How relevant is the "Apache Solr 3 Enterprise Search Server" book to 
working with version 4?  I couldn't find a list of differences anywhere.

    Apreesh!
