Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-16769:
---------------------------------------------

{quote} If a 3rd-party project wants to rely on an API that we've signaled is 
"in-flux" in so many ways, I sympathize with them. I absolutely do. But there's 
not much we can do to soften the consequences for folks if they choose to 
develop against Solr's bleeding edge.

No one chooses to develop against Solr's bleeding edge, they are forced to. In 
this particular case (Yasa), there's no stable way to check whether a cluster 
level plugin has been added or not. Looking up the clusterprops in ZK is the 
best way right now.

Changing an experimental API in a minor release is fine, but removing it 
without any reasonable notice or even a proper upgrade notice is cruel. Esp. 
for an API for which a supported alternative doesn't exist. Just shows how less 
we care about users.

> In https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16488, backward compatability 
> has been broken when the above mentioned endpoint was removed.
> I think right way should be to retain the older endpoint (deprecated), and 
> introduce the new endpoints that are designed to replace it. In 10x, the 
> older endpoint can be removed.
