 +Demian will merge his implementation, then David will start a new branch to begin integrating his more granular, flexible back-end code. The external URL-based interface should remain unchanged.

 + 
 +Several people on the call expressed a desire to get eDisMax support into 2.2. Demian plans on investigating this very soon. David is also looking into this. It is likely that for most cases, we just can use eDisMax instead of DisMax and remove a lot of complex query building logic from VuFind, but analysis is worthwhile to see if any currently supported VuFind features break when switching query handlers.

 +David mentioned the German VuFind Meeting -- many users are still on 1.x, but he encouraged upgrading to 2.x before 2.2. One theme: not all Solr features can be easily used with library data. Also an idea in early stages: a group of German libraries pooling resources to finance a VuFind developer.

 +Filipe mentioned the [[https://wiki1.hbz-nrw.de/display/SEM/2013/09/19/Announcing+the+lobid+API+beta|announcement]] of the [[http://api.lobid.org/|LOBID API]].
 +
 +Benjamin mentioned [[http://haproxy.1wt.eu/|HAProxy]] + Solr configuration -- he will share documentation soon.
