I would like to suggest that we make the next release candidate 2.3.2 (not 2.3.1). I have made all patches for this code available on the list and they satisfy all the unit tests. Additionally, the Lucene 2.3.2 release is only a bug-fix release, not a feature release (see http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/tags/lucene_2_3_2/CHANGES.txt).
Since there exists a gap in the releases of Lucene.Net (as compared to those of Lucene), continuity is no reason to release a 2.3.1 version. In fact, separate releases of 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 will result in more work, when users will only want the 2.3.2 release. Here is a link to my orignal post with the 2.3.2 patch: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-lucene-net-dev/200810.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Please comment.
