Trunk is for the 1.x releases (last release is 1.6), while branches/2.x is 2.1, etc. > The trunk contains the ".webgraph" package including classes LinkRank.java > and WebGraph.java.

Webgraph hasn't been ported to 2.x yet, see NUTCH-875. > Is the Giraph implementation meant for 2.x, 1.x or both? I would say that depends mainly on you. But it may be easier to start with 1.x because there is already a "reference" implementation. > Is there any irc channel for Nutch or Giraph? I can't find any on the > pages.
