George - I'm not on gene...@incubator any longer and have been too
busy/distracted to get back there for the vote.
For the record, I'm +1 on this graduation. Feel free to forward,
along with my apologies for being the world's lamest mentor. Keep up
the great works, Lucene.Net team!

Subject: [VOTE] Graduate Lucene.Net as a subproject under Apache
Lucene
Hi Folks,
On behalf of Lucene.Net mentor, committers and community, this is a
vote
call to graduate the Lucene.Net project
(http://incubator.apache.org/lucene.net/) as a sub-project under
Apache
Lucene.
The Lucene.Net mentor, committers, and the community have voted like
so:
+1 from Erik Hatcher (mentor)
+1 from George Aroush (committer)
+1 from Isik YIGIT (aka: DIGY) (committer)
+1 from Doug Sale (committer)
+1 from a total of 70+ Lucene.Net members / followers / users.
(with no -1 or 0 votes)
The vote result can be found here:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-lucene-net-user/200909.mb
ox/%3c166a01ca3739$13947380$3abd5a...@net%3e
The rationale for graduation is:
* Lucene.Net has been under incubation since April 2006 (3 1/2
years now).
* During incubation, Lucene.Net has:
- Made, 1 official release
(Incubating-Apache-Lucene.Net-2.0-004-11Mar07).
- Released, as SVN tag, 18 ports of Java Lucene (from 1.9 to
2.4.0).
- Released, as SVN tag, port of WordNet.Net 2.0, SpellChecker.Net
2.0,
Snowball.Net 2.0, and Highlighter.Net 2.0.
- Released, MSDN style documentation for the above release.
- Accepted, two new committers: Isik YIGIT (DIGY) digydigy @
gmail.com
and Doug Sale dsale @ myspace-inc.com were added in November 2008
(George
Aroush george @ aroush.net is the original committer).
- The community has grown, with a healthy followers.
- Is being used by well established companies in production (I'm
not
sure what's the legality to mention their names here, or even if I
have the
complete list).
- Is being used by Beagle project.
* Work is already under way to port Java Lucene 2.9 to Lucene.Net 2.9
If this graduation is approved, Lucene.Net will be officially called
"Apache
Lucene.Net"
Please cast your votes:
[ ] +1 Graduate Lucene.Net as a sub-project under Apache Lucene.
[ ] -1 Lucene.Net is not ready to graduate as a sub-project under
Apache
Lucene, because ...
This vote will close on October 17th, 2009.
Regards,
-- George
