(see comment below about rake task to use solrmarc for creating demo index)

orig description:

It seems to me that one of our next steps needs to be packaging solrmarc with our blacklight distro. Stanford and UVA are both using solrmarc to do their indexing, and the ruby indexer that currently comes with the plugin was only ever meant to be a placeholder. I'm volunteering to do this work, especially since I have Bob Haschart right here in the building with me to help if I get stuck.

It seems to me we should distribute a copy of solrmarc with our blacklight distro, in keeping with our "it should work out of the box" goals. Then we can have documentation about how to compile with the default settings, how to make changes to the config and re-compile, and how to set it loose on your own data.
