Great, Solr + Perl + Geospatial. There are two Perl clients for Solr listed on the Wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/IntegratingSolr . Are there any more? If yes, add them to the Wiki (need to ask permission to edit Wiki).
Are those two listed clients dead or alive? Do they work with Solr 4.7.1? Can you make them work with Solr 4.7.1 and recent version of Perl? Can you do a small demo that uses Perl client to index some geospatial information and then do a search for it? I strongly suspect you will hit some interesting issues. Find the fix, contribute back to the Perl library maintainer. Or, at least, clearly describe the issue, if you don't yet know enough to contribute the fix. Regards, Alex.
