Hi Paul, here is Paul ;-)

This is high on BibLibre list, definetly ! we are convinced that
switching to a new search engine like solR is a must. And we've 2
libraries that have sponsored this work. That won't be in 3.6 (I think),
but I think it should/must be in a 4.0 version (reminder : we switched
from v1 to v2 then v3 when a major structural change has been done (v1->
v2 = MARC support, v2-> v3 = zebra search engine).
We started a thread about this switch to explain the limits we see with
zebra, have organised meetings, some ppl have tested what we did (thx
thomas ;-) ), we will probably speak about that on koha-devel in some
weeks (during/after summer ?)
