Lucene4c

[Timothy St-Germain <ts...@mac.com>]

Hi,

I've just finished school, and I'd like to get involved (somehow)  
with the ASF and the Lucene4c in particular. I have some experience  
with C, but have a lot to learn, and I'm wondering if there is anyway  
that I could get involved with this project.

Anyway, what would be the best way to get started?

Thanks a ton, and have an excellent Christmas (or other holiday) !!!

Hi Tim,

It's great that you're interested in Apache, and there are lots of  
ways you can participate.

Sadly, the lucene4c project never quite got off the ground, and was  
closed for lack of activity in October 2006. You can find this from  
their incubator status page http://incubator.apache.org/projects/ 
lucene4c.html and http://incubator.apache.org/lucene4c

Probably the best way to get involved with Apache is to look at the  
main page http://apache.org for a project that interests you (sorry  
about lucene4c), and then to subscribe to the project mailing lists.

Apache welcomes participation at many levels, from simply using the  
various software projects to active contribution to development,  
including writing code, writing test cases, writing and editing  
documentation, and answering questions on the email aliases. See  
http://apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html for more information  
on how we work.

Merry Christmas to you,

Craig
