Most of use are on favor of rendering static HTML files with static URLs, 
see "After the T3DD12: The plan for the URLs - please check!".

So the question would be on how to get the content into Solr. Does Solr have 
kind of an indexer or would we need to write one ourselves?

The other option would be to import the generated content into a 
FLOW3/Phoenix website. The advantages would be to have a job queue already 
at hand, being to easily create intermediate pages to guide the users to 
different manuals and to have commenting on board (FLOW3 guys are doing this 
currently).
The major drawback might be performance and load on the server.

For the documentation team, it does not matter which way to go as long as 
editing is easy and the whole tool chain works with proper cross-linking 
(and of course static URLs).

The the actual decision must be about which solution integrates best with 
all requirements.
So we need your input on what is possible to do with Solr and what possible 
limitations and requirements need to be taken care of.

The should (must) be possible.

The would be helpful.
I do not know when the next meeting will take place, on my calendar it is 
May 24th, which might be a bit late.
