[ANNOUNCE] Apache Solr 4.9.1 released
September 2014, Apache Solr™ 4.9.1 available
The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Solr 4.9.1
Solr is the popular, blazing fast, open source NoSQL search platform
from the Apache Lucene project. Its major features include powerful
full-text search, hit highlighting, faceted search, dynamic
clustering, database integration, rich document (e.g., Word, PDF)
handling, and geospatial search. Solr is highly scalable, providing
fault tolerant distributed search and indexing, and powers the search
and navigation features of many of the world's largest internet sites.
Solr 4.9.1 is available for immediate download at:
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/mirrors-solr-latest-redir.html
Solr 4.9.1 includes 2 bug fixes, as well as Lucene 4.9.1 and its 7 bug fixes.
See the CHANGES.txt file included with the release for a full list of
changes and further details.
Please report any feedback to the mailing lists
(http://lucene.apache.org/solr/discussion.html)
Note: The Apache Software Foundation uses an extensive mirroring
network for distributing releases. It is possible that the mirror you

case, please try another mirror. This also goes for Maven access.

This is a bug fix release on top of 4.9. Only some important fixes from
4.10 and beyond were back-ported to the 4.9 branch. There may be a 4.10.1
release too very soon.

I'll merge back the 4.9.1 CHANGES entries so when we do a 4.10.1,
they'll be there ... and I'll also make sure any fix we backported for
4.9.1, we also backport for 4.10.1.

It's a bugfix release, fixing some showstopper bugs in a recent release
that is critical to the RM (Michael McCandless) and/or an organization
where he has influence or liability. Apparently this was a more
expedient path than completely validating a 4.10 upgrade and waiting for
the 4.10.1 bugfix release. Validating the 4.10 upgrade probably would
have taken considerably longer than simply backporting some critical
fixes to the 4.9 release that they're actually using.
The two bug fixes for Solr are a license issue and a security
vulnerability. The bugfix list for Lucene includes fixes for some major
problems that can cause index corruption or incorrect operation.
I had thought that the CHANGES.txt list would remain the same for trunk
and the stable branch because some of those bugfixes skipped the 4.10.0
release, but it looks like that's not the case for LUCENE-5919 (the only
one that I actually investigated). If these issues all got updated to
the 4.9.1 section of CHANGES.txt in places other than the 4.9 branch and
the 4.9.1 tag, there might be a small amount of confusion in the distant
future. That confusion would be cleared up by looking at CHANGES.txt
for the 4.10.0 release, though.
Looks like the 4.10.1 release has been delayed a little. I hope that
this collection of fixes makes it in there too, so that 4.10.0 is the
only release where that confusion might impact users.
Thanks,
Shawn

This confuses me a bit, aren't we already at 4.10.0?
But CHANGES.txt of 4.10.0 doesn't know anything about 4.9.1.
Is this an interim version or something about backward compatibility?
