Date ranges including BC dates is this possible?
I would like to return facets for all years between 11000 BCE (BC) and 9000 BCE (BC) using SOLR.
A sample query might be with date ranges converted to ISO 8601:
q=*:*&facet.date=myfield_earliestDate&facet.date.end=-92009-01-01T00:00:00&facet.date.gap=%2B1000YEAR&facet.date.other=all&facet=on&f.myfield_earliestDate.facet.date.start=-112009-01-01T00:00:00
However the returned results seem to be suggest that dates are in positive range, ie CE, not BCE...
see sample returned results

Any ideas why this is the case, can solr handle negative dates such as -112009-01-01T00:00:00Z?
