Could supply full text search, visualization of WARCs, etc. License is compatible (Apache) but will also have to include Solr, which might be able to reuse bundled Java.

[ ] Update to Java > 7 (See issue-345-java11 branch and #345)

The question was reiterated by @ymaurer at the IIPC WAC 2021 presentation on WAIL. The feasibility ought to be investigated further. Details to come.

A barrier on WAIL's end is that it still relies on Java 7.

345 describes efforts at updating Heritrix inclusive of updating to bundling Java 11.

Updating to Java > 7 is a requirement before integration with SolrWayback can proceed.
