Hi Robert,

Thanks for taking your time and looking at this release.  To answer your
questions:

The files *.csproj, and *.sln are the Visual Studio.NET project files --
those are auto generated and thus I can't edit them outside the IDE -- the
same goes to the few *.cs files that you noticed as well as the few *.xml
and *.html files that you highlighted.

For the file,
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lucene.net/trunk/C%23/contrib/Sno
wball.Net/Test/Analysis/Snowball/TestSnowball.cs where you pointed out the
use of the old style Apache License, it looks like
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#faq-update-scripts didn't do
the job well here.  This is an original work -- will this issue prevent a
release?.

Thanks for catching the grammatical error in the README.txt: "An MADN ..."
I fixed it in the SVN release.

Again, thanks for taking your time and looking at this release candidate.
Please let me know if I addressed all of your questions and if I get your +1
or -1 vote.

Regards,

-- George Aroush

questions:
------------

RAT run: there are a quite a number of files in the source distribution
which lack the standard apache header. this is not necessarily wrong but it
does raise questions before i can judge this release.

generally all primary documents which are not binaries and which can have
license headers should have them.

*.csproj - am i right in assuming these are c# project files? if so IIRC
there are issues with adding headers to m$ project files. is this true in
this case?

*.cs - am i right in assuming that these are c# source files? AIUI these
should all have license headers, shouldn't they?

*.sln - does the 'Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File' format allow
comments?

contrib/Highlighter.Net/Highlighter.Net/Highlighter.Net.xml looks to be
standard xml and so capable of comments. is it generated?

contrib/Highlighter.Net/Highlighter.Net/Package.html looks to be standard
html and so capable of comments. is it generated?

contrib/Snowball.Net/Snowball.Net/Xdocs/Index.xml looks to be standard xml
and so capable of comments. is it generated?

contrib/Snowball.Net/Snowball.Net/Xdocs/Stylesheets/Project.xml looks to be
standard xml and so capable of comments. is it generated?

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lucene.net/trunk/C%23/contrib/Sno
wball.Net/Test/Analysis/Snowball/TestSnowball.cs
has the old apache license. is this document an import or an original work
created for apache?

contrib/WordNet.Net/WordNet.Net/Build.xml is missing a license header and
looks to be standard of xml and so capable of comments. is this generated?

contrib/WordNet.Net/WordNet.Net/Package.html  looks to be standard html and
so capable of comments. is it generated?

comments and notes
-------------------------
(suggestions, not mandatory)

DOCUMENTATION



grammar typo in README.txt: "An MSDN style API documentation for Apache
Lucene.Net exist. " -> "MSDN style API documentation for Apache Lucene.Net
exists. " (IMHO not worth a revote, just fix in trunk)

there are a number of package.html documents which are IMHO too small and
uncreative to sustain copyright. remember to add license headers if their
content is expanded.
