I have created the lucene_solr_5_4 branch. Please, no new features in this branch.
Please update this thread with any changes you propose to make to this branch. Only JIRA tickets which are a blocker and have fix version 5.4 will delay a release candidate build. Please do review the below - and take any action to clear up these tickets asap. I expect to create the first RC this time next week. Thanks!
