I started with the port and have it running.
The current version can be found here:
https://github.com/idefix6/freebsd-apache-solr/tree/6.2.0

Upstream was a lot changed and I'm not sure how to tackle this:

- directory structure was changed completely (currently I have
everything under /usr/local/solr which does not respect hier but for the
first step it should be fine)
- solr uses now its own startup script and I see no reason to write this
script again -> so I will use the bash script to start solr

I changed the current startup script that it can start a solr instance
without problems.
But the startup script does not return the PID and I'm not sure how to
handle, so stopping the solr instance via FreeBSD startup script is not
possible.

What is here best practise?

Matthias
