Hi Folks,
If you are watching lucene-net-commits<AT>incubator.apache.org you will noticed that I just committed Apache Lucene.Net 2.9.0 build 001 "Alpha". This is a port of src\Demo\* and src\Lucene.Net\*. I was hoping to also include src\Test\* but it's not ready yet (I got tied up with family commitment over this weekend to wrap it up). However, it's very close and I expect to deliver it by next weekend. Before my delivery of 2.9.0 code base, I tagged 2.4.0, and updated few files in it. I also generated MSDN style documentation for it. You can find it in tags\Lucene.Net_2_4_0\* As for 2.9.0, indexing and searching works but not necessarily bug free, so feel free to give it a shot and report back with issues and fixes via JIRA. As in the past, I flagged port issues with {{Aroush-2.9}} (as well as Debug.Fail() to catch run-time port issues). The majority of those port issues are either none-issues, or minor. However, for now, I like to leave them in for sanity check until when I get the test code ported. Also, if you are following Apache Java Lucene, you will notice that there is a major issue with 2.9.0 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1974) This prompted the need to release of 2.9.1 which may happen next week or so. This means, once 2.9.1 is release, we have to adopt it too -- the port of 2.9.1 should be minor and I'm thinking to role it up into 2.9.0. E.g.: switch over to 2.9.1 rather than release Apache Lucene.Net 2.9.0 followed with Apache Lucene.Net 2.9.1. Finally, any further communication about port progress, I will confine them to lucene-net-dev@ mailing list only and I ask that we all do the same moving forward. This way, we don't pollute the mailing list (I always used both mailing list because we were a small community, but we are past that now). That's it for now. So take 2.9.0 for a spin, and report back! Thanks. -- George
