Hi Sean, I just now realized the responses you received

In short: You are more than welcome. Look around to see if you find anything you want to work on, do what you enjoy to do. We don't assign work to people, people pick the stuff they want to work on. If you have any questions or need help, don't hesitate to ask. In order to join the mailing list, which is where all discussion and coordination happens you have to send an email to lucene-net-dev-subscr...@incubator.apache.org using the email address you intend to use when posting to this list. Everybody can join the list. Cheers Stefan
