+1 from me.
Other Lucene PMC members - please cast your vote on this thread.

Garrett,
You're right that all new code bases should come through the Incubator.
However, the appropriate PMC to vote on whether it should be accepted
into the incubator is the sponsoring PMC, which in this case appears to
be the Lucene PMC. (The Incubator PMC does sponsor some projects,
usually the ones that are expected to eventually be their own TLP.)
The Incubator PMC is responsible for supporting what comes in and voting
whether it is ready to graduate. So, once the Lucene PMC votes to
incubate it, the Incubator PMC will help you figure out exactly what
needs to be done and will then vote on graduation.
Hope that helps.
Cliff

All donated code should really go through the Incubator, even if only to do the required IP checklist.
Right.
By my question is why doesn't this go through the Lucene project? The Lucene PMC could bring the codebase into their project and register the IP stuff here w/ the incubator.
Is there some precedent for this? I'm not sure what is meant by "register the IP stuff here". Could you elaborate on what this entails.
I'd gladly bring the codebase into Lucene's repository if that is the consensus. It was created entirely by Garrett and he's agreed to donate it, so the IP should be pretty clear cut.

I hope I'm just misunderstanding, but this appears to be a proposal to create a new project at the ASF called "Lucene4c"

I presume this codebase is substantial enough that it requires incubation? Or because it was a single developer, could he contribute it directly to the Lucene project and bypass incubation?

I'd like to propose the Lucene4c project for incubation.
Lucene4c is a port of the Lucene search engine from Java to C, using the Apache Portable Runtime library for portability. The project is far from complete, and code to date is primarily concerned with reading an existing Lucene index, which must be created with another Lucene implementation (currently only Java Lucene has been tested). The plan is to complete support for the rest of the index format and then move on to implementing search functionality (beyond the current proof of concept code anyway). Once we've reached that point work will begin on actual indexing functionality so that Lucene4c can stand alone, without the use of another Lucene implementation for bootstrapping.
The project would be part of the new Lucene top leve project, and Erik Hatcher has offerred to serve as a sponsor.
While I have yet to expand the community of developers further than myself, I am anxious to do so, and I expect to be able to draw both from people as of yet unassociated with Lucene who have expressed interest in such a project and from existing Lucene developers who have expressed interest in establishing cross-language compatibility tests for the various Lucene ports.
Lucene4c already has ties to existing ASF projects, particularly Lucene itself and APR. Bringing it into the ASF would only strengthen those ties.
More details, including where to get the current release or development versions of the code can be found at the Lucene4c web site at http://electricjellyfish.net/garrett/lucene4c/
