Hi all,
I've been hanging around the community in the background for a few months now 
using and browsing the Nutch-1.2 source code. Nutch is a wonderful software 
many thanks to the Nutch Dev team and the community for this wonderful software.
This is my situation:
I have a working copy of the Nutch-1.2 binary source code. I managed to set it 
up for whole web crawl Bootstrapping from the DMOZ database as per the pre 
Nutch-1.3 wiki. Also I have integrated my copy with Solr as per Sami Siren blog 
at Lucid Imagination site this is a very nice combination. I am pleased with 
Nutch-1.2 and I dont' want to upgrade to Nutch 1.3. Now I want to integrated 
the Bing API into my copy of Nutch-1.2. But I don't know how to do this. I've 
been reading about the Nutch plug in architecture and follow some examples also 
found tons of information on the web about Nutch but could find nothing that 
could help me. 
My questions are:
what would be the best way to go about to implement the Bing API?Should I 
attempt to write a plugin and point my plugin.xml file extensions to the 
existing extension-points? And which core extension-points should I use?Or 
should I attempted to hard code the Bing API source into the existing Nutch 
Java at  nutch-1.2.src\src\java\org\apache\nutch\searcher?
I am looking for some guidance. Any help  or helpful links that can help me to 
accomplish this will be appreciated.
Thanks
