Hello, My name is Tao Lin, a Chinese student from Beijing Normal University Zhuhai Campus. It's great to see that Han Jiang (also a Chinese student) has already contributed to Lucene in GSoC 2012 and 2013. Likewise, I'd like to participant GSoC 2014, on the project of LUCENE-466 [1] (Need QueryParser support for BooleanQuery.minNrShouldMatch). Is this lucene dev mailing list the place to discuss gsoc projects? Who will be the mentor(s) for this project? I see the Assignee of LUCENE-466 is Yonik Seeley. How can I get in touch with him? Is LUCENE-466 still available as a GSoC 2014 student project?
For a brief self-introduction, I've successfully completed 2 open source GSoC projects: - In GSoC 2011, I worked for Languagetool [2] to develop a Lucene-based indexing tool that makes it possible to run proof-reading rule against a large amount of text. - In GSoC 2012, I added the RDFa metadata support for Apache ODF Toolkit [3]. Yours, Tao Lin [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-466 [2] http://www.languagetool.org/gsoc2011/ [3] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODFTOOLKIT-50
