Steve Rowe commented on LUCENE-7543:
------------------------------------

bq. [~steve_rowe], is there anything I could help with this task? If you share 
the details of the planned implementation, I could create a patch.

Yes, that would be great, thanks!.  Here's what I was going to do (but haven't 
really started #3 yet):

# Download the doap.rdf files
# Put them in place in a cloned Lucene/Solr Git repo (probably at {{lucene/}} 
and {{solr/}}).
# Edit these two files to contain the same dates as JIRA has - you can look at 
how current changes-to-html pulls release info from JIRA and do the same thing 
to get the raw data.  If there are conflicts, I think JIRA is probably more 
authoritative.
# Figure out how to parse the doap.rdf files, rather than the JIRA version 
output.  (I'm being vague because I haven't looked at details of what's 
involved here.)
# Use doap.rdf release dates rather than those from JIRA.
# Stop downloading version data from JIRA.

> Currently changes-to-html pulls release dates from JIRA, and so fails when 
> JIRA is inaccessible (e.g. from behind a firewall).
> SOLR-9711 advocates adding a build sysprop to ignore JIRA connection 
> failures, but I'd rather make the operation always offline.
> In an offline discussion, [~hossman] advocated moving Lucene's and Solr's 
> {{doap.rdf}} files, which contain all of the release dates that the 
> changes-to-html now pulls from JIRA, from the CMS Subversion repository 
> (downloadable from the website at http://lucene.apache.org/core/doap.rdf and 
> http://lucene.apache.org/solr/doap.rdf) to the Lucene/Solr git repository. If 
> we did that, then the process could be entirely offline if release dates were 
> taken from the local {{doap.rdf}} files instead of downloaded from JIRA.
