Hey All, The discussion on Sharpen or other porting tools has been quiet so I think its time for a vote. Background info here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENENET-380
I propose forking Sharpen outside of ASF for use in our conversion and any other java project. The company that created Sharpen (db4o) could accept patches however I fear that the scope of our changes will be large enough that our goals will not align with db4o's and using their trunk would be a burden. Also hopefully the fork project could attract more attention and contributions than the current obscure repository. Vote will be open for 72 hours. Suggestions on where to host the fork and name for the fork encouraged. My name pick: Grindstone (as in what you use to sharpen) Thanks, Alex
