Lucene.Net is a port of the Lucene search engine library, written in C# and targeted at .NET Framework users. It is licensed under the Apache License 2.0 license.
Lucene.NET is a port of the Java-based version of Lucene. There are currently two variations of the software, differing in Generics support and a few bug fixes. The version that supports Generics has a lowercase "g" appended to the version name to distinguish between the two.
Regardless of generics support, All versions of Lucene.NET (with or without the "g") should be able to read and write index files from the corresponding version of Java Lucene with no issues.
