- <<TableOfContents(3)>>
  
  == Overview ==
  
+ Solr 5.0 is the first release in the current major version of Solr, represented by the SVN branch named "branch_5x".
- Solr 5.0 will be the next major release of Solr, represented by the SVN "branch" named trunk.  There is currently no planned release timeframe.
- 
- Development is still going strong on the 4.x version.  Most changes are applied to trunk and then backported to branch_4x, so the two branches are very similar.  As of May 2013, there is no compelling reason to create branch_5x and move towards a release of version 5.0.  Because trunk now requires a minimum of Java 7 and branch_4x must still compile and run on Java 6, the two branches will start diverging quickly.
