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.

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. - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
