delete oddity...
Note to whomever writes documentation:
It would be nice to note in the documentation for doing a <delete>
that the <id> has to be exactly <id>, and not the <id>whatever</id>
that is specified in the schema.xml configuration file. For doing deletes
by id, of course. :)
The wiki at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages?highlight=%28delete%29
was just a little misleading, at least for me.

Ok, hold on a sec... let m
e clarify just a bit.
In my schema.xml I have something like:
<uniqueKey>myID</uniqueKey>
The xml:
<delete><myID>fred</myID></delete>
fails.
The xml:
<delete><id>fred</id></delete>
works.

We all do :)
Feel free to create a wiki account and edit the page if you like.
Much appreciated in fact!
You're right ... that's a confusing oddity about the <delete> command.
