Hi, Thank you for the warm welcome, I feel very honoured to have been made a Nutch committer.
A few lines aboyut myself : I started using Lucene back in 2001, made a few small contributions to it and started LIMO - an open source web application used for monitoring Lucene indices. Over the last 3 years I have used quite a few Apache projects such as SOLR, UIMA and of course Nutch, which I recently used for a large scale crawling project involving a 400 node cluster and 15 billions URLs fetched. My activities at DigitalPebble also cover Natural Language Processing (which is my initial background), text analysis and I recently started an open source project named Behemoth which allows to scale text analysis applications using Hadoop. There are quite a few exciting things planned for Nutch in the short term and I really look forward to contributing to it in the new year. Happy Christmas and best wishes for 2010!
