Hello Shad, Thank you for the detailed email, I appreciate it. Unfortunately we cannot help you at the moment because we planned a lot of work for the upcoming months. But I will ask our community(1000+ members) if there is someone who has time and domain knowledge to help you. Regarding to the replicator suggestion we will look at it and see how we can adopt it. Once again, thank you for the information.

We are currently working on another beta release, after which I will be cutting back the amount of time I can dedicate to Lucene.Net. We are very close to finishing, and have not had many reports of bugs, but there are a couple of things we need before we can call the release official: 1. API Documentation 2. International Components for Unicode (ICU) functionality completed and bugs fixed There are a few other things that could also use some work, none of which are blocking the release. However, we could use some assistance with getting over the finish line. We will make an official request for help on the user email list after the beta release, but I am afraid without additional contributions we can't be more specific about a release date. Realistically, if we get a couple of people to help who are familiar with C/C# interop to help move the icu.net project along (https://github.com/sillsdev/icu-dotnet) and fix the ICU related functionality in Lucene.Net, we could see an official release before the end of the year. Without those contributors it could take considerably longer. * When the servers are sharing one file and try to reindex it, the file is locked and there is an error (this happens in 2.9.2). I am wondering if this issue is resolved in 3.0.3 or 4.8.0. I am not sure if that is a bug or by design. But, I am pretty sure that you aren't supposed to share the same set of files between multiple servers. In fact, there is a new project, Lucene.Net.Replicator, which is meant for synchronizing snapshots of the files to different servers on a server farm. See this comment (https://github.com/apache/lucenenet/pull/209#issuecomment-320473287) and the documentation (https://github.com/apache/lucenenet/blob/master/src/Lucene.Net.Replicator/Http/replicator.md) for more details of how it works. You can preview Lucene.Net.Replicator on the latest CI build (https://www.myget.org/gallery/lucene-net-ci).

Our product is using lucene search and we would like to upgrade to the latest possible version (.NET). Since version 4.8.0 beta is the last one porter to .NET, I am wondering if you have any roadmap when the official release will come up. Also, one question about the case with load balanced servers. When the servers are sharing one file and try to reindex it, the file is locked and there is an error (this happens in 2.9.2). I am wondering if this issue is resolved in 3.0.3 or 4.8.0.
