Awww, thanks! It's still a stupid little hack, but it does have
potential to evolve into so much more with some TLC.

I do, over on rubyforge.

When? So far just sporadically when there were enough new pieces
that I wanted to use more easily myself.

I would love to see Apache become a ruby gem repository itself,
rather than having to push stuff to a different site.

Great question. So far it has just tracked Solr trunk, at the time
each version was released.

Ideally, the gem and the Flare plugin should ship with inside the
Solr distribution too, such that they are internally consistent with
that version of Solr.

Volunteers to help us get these tasks accomplished are more than
welcome!!! I've not quite got this itch to scratch myself since I'm
generally on Solr trunk and use the latest greatest of this stuff
from trunk - but I definitely agree there is much value to getting
these things addressed somehow.
