Hi Ben, I can't volunteer, but you may want to check with Garrett Rooney. He stopped work on lucene4c, so he may be interested in helping you with moving CLucene under Apache Lucene.

A long while back, CLucene was invited to join the ASF incubation program under Lucene. For various reasons this hasn't happend yet. But CLucene has still been happily progressing and interest in the project continues to increase - many open source projects (such as ht://dig and strigi) as well as many companies use CLucene. CLucene would of course do much better if we were part of the big happy family of Lucene and its sub-projects. However, I believe our main obstacle to this is the absence of an ASF mentor. So basically I'm asking this: would Apache Lucene still like to have us? If yes, would anyone be interested, or know of someone interested in being our mentor? Look forward to a response, Ben
