RE: Lucene.NET Community Status

A better way to put that is.. Thank you for the background, we would hate to repeat history due to being un-aware of it.. 

Now to returned to our regularly scheduled repeat of history (new and improved with "informed" action :-P).

We've already been through this process once before.  Why repeat?

At this point, I think the PMC expects to see a plan and action for either going back to Incubation and becoming a standalone project or going to the Attic and then being maintained elsewhere. In either case, it is clear that it is in the best interest of the .NET community to have some self-determination.

Based on the messages here, I think you have enough volunteers to go back to the Incubator and try again.  I would suggest one of you volunteers browses over to http://incubator.apache.org and take a look at what it means to put together an entry proposal (basically, you need a Wiki page outlining the proposal) and then solicit mentors/champions on [email protected] and then call a vote.
