I didn't realize there was an "official Apache way" but your comments got me the keywords I needed to find... http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html As for guidelines for patches, I've tried to consolidate both Erik/Doug's comments along with my own personal opinions about providing unit tests into the FAQ... http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/LuceneFAQ#head-bd6009b019133448d3ac22e3989ddf270b845ccb ...if anyone else has any additions or corrections ... it's a wiki. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
