So for testing it would be good, to have access to some external project wich are based on solr/lucene. So if someone want to invite me, you can write me an E-mail.

Re: Hi I'm Raphael
Hi Raphael, Welcome and thanks for taking an interest in helping out! Shawn's pointers above are all good for getting started. If there's any other information you need, let us know. You know best what you want to get involved with. But if you're interested in QA and are interested in the Solr side of things, you might be interested in a test-failure aggregator that Hoss, a member of the community here, has set up: http://fucit.org/solr-jenkins-reports/failure-report.html. Some tests fail regularly but others have low failure rates and are challenging to reproduce. We always need help with tests and appreciate help tracking down issues. Looking forward to working with you as you get ramped up.

I'm here for Solr, and my interest in Lucene is only incidental, because Solr derives most of its functionality from Lucene. Almost all development work here begins in the master branch, and is backported to other branches as required. We release from the stable branch, which is currently branch_8x. At some point, likely next year, we will create branch_9x and master will be renumbered to major version 10. Lucene is not really geared for "installation" ... it is a development library. It is used by developers to write their own software, and it will be up to that developer to work out how their software is installed. Lucene is a development dependency, much like this one: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/ If you want to work on a complete application, you can opt to work on Solr instead of Lucene. Or you can go to project outside the Apache umbrella that happens to use Lucene as a dependency.

Hi I'm Raphael
Hi all Some people may know me from other Projects like the incubator. I came to Apache with the OpenOffice Community. I can programming, but my real ability is QA. One of my speciality is to track down hard reproducable bugs. I'm interested in search engines since long time. I experimented years ago with YaCy (wich was based on Lucene and Solr). But this project was not really stable. I'm here at the moment in my sparetime. I simply need a bit a challenge in the QA. But I don't know, how much time I can invest here. Wich source tree I should build for testing purpose? I heard rumors, that installing Lucene is a bit rocket science. Anyway, I will seeā¦ I will try it on a Ubuntu Subsystem on Windows 10.
