Hi Erik,

Wiki: Done.  I now have an account and did a quick test to edit the page.
Everything works.

Lucene.Net History: Yes, the release of 1.3-rc3 as DotLucene was nothing but
a re-packaging of what Pasha removed from SourceForge.net.  Everything
released after 1.3-rc3 was done by me from the ground up.  I did not take
anything from Pasha's 1.3-rc3 release other then examining it to fix some
issues (primarily with the file StandardTokenizerTokenManager.java).  Once I
had my first 1.4 release, I never had to look back at 1.3's code base.

I hope this helps, if not let me know.

Regards,

-- George

Yes, I added that wiki piece for Lucene.Net.  Please refine it as desired.

I'm not clear on your timeline below... when you re-released 1.3-rc3, that
was with Pasha's codebase, right?  And what about 1.4-alpha - was any of
that code from Pasha, or was it a from-scratch creation by you?
