[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-11253) Ref Guide: Upgrade docs for 7.0

["Cassandra Targett (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11253?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16146170#comment-16146170 ] 

Cassandra Targett commented on SOLR-11253:
------------------------------------------

I've attached a patch with the changes I propose to make for this.  Here's the list of what I did:

* New file named {{major-changes-in-solr-7.adoc}}, will be a child of {{solr-upgrade-notes.adoc}} (which is itself a child of {{getting-started.adoc}}). Includes major changes in Solr 7, including new features + deprecations, removals, etc.
* Moved {{major-changes-from-solr-5-to-solr-6.adoc}} to also be a child of {{solr-upgrade-notes.adoc}}
* Edited {{solr-upgrade-notes.adoc}}
** Moved list of changes for 6.x releases that was on {{solr-upgrade-notes.adoc}} to the end of {{major-changes-in-solr-7.adoc}}, as a semi-comprehensive list of major changes people might want to know about between 6.0 and 6.6.
** Until 7.1 and further 7.x releases, pointed people looking at {{solr-upgrade-notes.adoc}} for detailed info about what they might expect when upgrading from whatever 6.x version to 7.0.

This is a bit of a departure from the way we've done this in the past, but hopefully it's easier for users.

I'm also toying with the idea of reinstating the "Major Changes from Solr 4 to Solr 5" page...but have not convinced myself it's worth the hassle it would entail trying to wring it out of Confluence's archive.
