Hi, Thanks for your answers. I'll give some context: our project uses multiple 3rd party products, Solr is among them. Upgrading versions of 3rd parties can only take place at specific points in time in the development cycle. At these points it would be useful to be able to see what changed in all the 3rd parties and consider the upgrade.
So some projects (e.g. Maven, Tomcat) have their own ANNOUNCE-only lists that make it easy to get informed of just the updates, and I was hoping to have the same functionality in Solr. The proposed solutions so far (the Apache general updates RSS and the Solr general list) are "too noisy" and not focused enough. Relatedly, is it possible to get updates on the Solr News page ( http://lucene.apache.org/solr/solrnews.html)? I couldn't find an RSS link or such.
