Thanks Craig and all. I don't know anyone in person on the Apache web and unfortunately, I am not attending ApacheCons to meet other folks. So what are my options? The release is ready for a vote and yet I don't know how to make it happen with this issue outstanding!!
Erik Hatcher and Doug Cutting know me as the Lucene.Net committer, granted not in person. Will this be sufficient? I have placed everything here: http://people.apache.org/~aroush/Lucene.Net-2.0-004/ (this is my home directory at people.apache.org) Folks, please help so I can get this first official and "correct" release of Lucene.Net!

There are half a dozen people in the Mass Bay Area according to the map below [1]. By the way, there is usually a key-signing party at the ApacheCons and I'd encourage you to show up at the party and sign others' keys and request others to sign yours.
