Hi Hakeem, Happy to have you on board
Unfortunately, the 4x branch you were working off is based on an earlier version of Lucene and has been stale for quite a while. Work has progressed on the master branch towards a release of Lucene.NET 4.8. See: https://github.com/apache/lucenenet Current state of affairs is that we have about 350 failing tests (out of ~2200) and we are working hard on making them all pass. Then we are looking at porting more sub-projects (like the Analysis, Suggest etc) including their own tests. If you could get the latest sources from there and see what you can help us with - be it investigating failing tests or doing some porting work on other bits we haven't ported yet - that'd be great. Let us know on this list if you have any questions.
