[Solr Wiki] Trivial Update of "CommitPolicy" by YonikSeeley

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Solr Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by YonikSeeley:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommitPolicy

The comment on the change is:
clarify that it's not a committed patch

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  At the scale of this project it seems easier to take into account the amount of trust that exists between community members, as opposed to creating zillions of rules.
  
- To paraphrase Yonik: ''a half-baked patch with no documentation, no tests and no backwards compatibility...is better than no patch at all!''
+ To paraphrase Yonik: ''a half-baked patch submitted to JIRA with no documentation, no tests and no backwards compatibility...is better than no patch at all!''
  
  So we won't create a policy about when it makes sense to deviate from these guidelines....but in some cases it does. In case of doubt, just ask on the dev list.
